My reason is that Reddit has opened a representative office in Turkey. This means the government can hand over IP addresses whenever it wants. In short, I came to Lemmy because freedom is gone. Fuck Reddit.

I got a permanent ban from Reddit because of my username (after 6 months on that account), which was very similar to my username here - they didn’t get the reference, and said it was promoting violence, even on appeal. Since the issue was my username, I tried to make a new account, and that one was immediately permanently banned for using the same email address (ban evasion). I tried to appeal, since the issue had been my username, and the new one had no violent words, but was of course denied. Since they also track IP addresses and device IDs, I decided that it would be silly to fast-track getting a new phone and/or computer for fucking Reddit, and started to look at the alternatives.
The only good fascist is a dead fascist.
Reddit would ban me for that.
