A memorial for the front page of the internet. If you have left reddit or is considering leaving then this community is for you.

There’s also a blog documenting the rise and fall of reddit as well as news and thoughts on the whole issue.

It serves as an archive for posts and topics in case reddit decides to delete anti-reddit posts within its platform.

Banned on Reddit for the following:

I'm not one to believe conspiracy theories whatsoever, but the one I would not be surprised by is how he and Leon have made so many comments / slip ups that strongly imply that stole this election.

It'd be one thing if it was just once, but the sheer amount of different ways they've said it is mind boggling:

Given that Drumpf and Leon are currently in the process of dismantling our government for their own personal gain and that Drumpf is completely incapable of NOT bragging about his crimes in front of everyone it worries me that it may actually be true and we will never know it.

I'm not disagreeing with your main points, but I will say that's not the reason you were banned from reddit. I was banned from reddit for having my bike stolen 30 years ago. I made a joke that another guy in my city had his bike stolen recently, and it looked just like the guy who stole MY bike. But with 30 years age difference it can't be the same kid. So I made the joke maybe he's the son of the kid who stole my bike 30 years ago.

Reddit banned me for user harassment.

Who am I harassing? The guy who stole my bike 30 years ago? We don't know that he's on reddit in that topic. And if he is, tell him to give me my bike back! Hell, we don't even know if he's alive! A life of crime isn't a safe one after all.

What I'm trying to say is reddit has poorly trained AI which goes around banning people for no reason.

What I don't understand is if it's intentional. Either they just banned a 2023 top 1% poster (by their own metrics) due to incompetence, OR they've shifted tone and want reddit to be more right wing.

I honestly can't tell which. But my banning had nothing to do with politics. So I think more along the lines of it being general baffoonary on Spez's part.

You know Spez, right? The man with a SUUUUUUUPER punchable face. Just go on and try it. Go punch Spez's face like 30 times.

Someone posted an edgy meme about killing sadness from inside out and I commented yeah with a gun and I got perma banned for that. Also for harassment. Like who am I harassing? The sadness character? Wtf and it's literally on topic with the meme.
