I got banned from a subreddit because the mod had this "not with us, you are against us"argument. It was years ago, but IIRC I was posting against a comment calling for assaulting men to balance out the abuse of women.

To be honest, I think I may have seen more banning on Lemmy though. I've noticed a few cases where the admins have banned people with objectionable opinions. In all fairness, these were the type people you would avoid at parties, but it does give me pause. In reddit if you get banned from a particular subreddit you still keep your identity and participate in other subreddits. In Lemmy, you are at the mercy of your server, and if a large server bans you, it would essentially remove you from all of their communities that otherwise might accept you. I worry that this is creating an echo chamber.

Multiple reasons really, one of which was telling a guy who wanted to put low IQ people in concentration camps "you first".

I’ve actually never been banned on Reddit for anything, anywhere. I’ve always been careful of where I went and what I interacted with there. I only just recently deleted my Reddit account, because I stopped using it long before I got myself setup on Lemmy. I’ve been on a roll of abandoning the “big” platforms (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X) and replacing them with decentralized services. Reddit is just my most recent example.

Then you get also permabanned from a lot of lemmy instances for thought crime ?

I posted a picture of the non existent genitals of a Ken doll with the caption, "Elon's Penis," In political humor.

Someone said the brazen bull probably wasn't a real thing and I suggested trying it out on child molesters if they wanted to see if it would actually work or not. Reddit mods hate when you suggest that child molesters deserve to suffer for some reason....
