No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

Ugh, /pics is a real dumpster fire. Mods run it like a business, everything must be bland and mindless.

I got past my ban by just waiting a few months. I guess they drop banned IPs after a while. Had to make a new account of course.
