The gloomy sentiment around Reddit Inc. has failed to dissipate after its shares fell 50% from a February high, with volatile technology stocks under pressure.

Holy shit, me too.

They said I threatened violence because in a thread about Putin potentially being sick, I said I wished he had a painful slow death.

Apparently even bloodthirsty dictators get to have their poor feelings protected by Reddit.

Fuck Reddit! I'm just gonna abandon that shit platform

I had two main accounts. My oldest account got permabanned for a joke about Nick Fuentes. After his address got doxxed and he pepper sprayed a woman who rang his doorbell back in December of last year, I said "hey as an incel he should be happy that the ladies know where he lives now so they can share a cocktail with him", and I added a cartoon gif of a Molotov. It was obviously a joke, but they said it was "promoting/glorifying violence". I ate the bullet on that one because they were technically right, even if they were a bunch of humorless twats.

My other account got banned about a month ago when I up voted a comment that was just a picture of Luigi Luigi (the Nintendo character) smoking a cigarette. Again for "promoting/glorifying violence".

Elon Musk is a weak little crybaby and Steve Huffman is a pathetic coward.

Wait... What?

Sure, the first example is understandable.

Idek wtf i said lmaoo. Atleast you got told you were deplatformed for daring to disagree with the regime. I just got shown the door. This place seems much nicer though.

Well, I had enough of this bullshit, and together with news that Reddit's CEO was pressured by Musk of all people to curb dissent, I just deleted my accounts.

Bye Reddit.

I'm 100% a Lemmee guy now
