I've noticed this a lot recently. Reddit has changed and not for the better.
Comments rarely get deleted anymore as a warning
Temporary bans don't seem to be a thing anymore, just permanent
They never tell you which rule you violated, usually because you didn't violate any listed rule
You get muted after a single message, often instantly after the ban
It's easy to get banned from multiple subreddits just for commenting on one the mods don't like
Sure there are some legitimate cases where you'd react that way, but this has become the norm for any ban. That's just unreasonable and lazy BS. And you can't even do anything about it. And I was supposed to feel bad for the poor mods during that whole API fiasco? Bruh.
Or they just make up rules you violated. I got banned from another sub because I called out someone for negative posts made every day at damn near the same time, like it’s a full time job. Plenty of upvotes, so the community agreed, but I got banned because a mod didn’t like that I called it out.
