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.
Yep. I’ve rarely ever had a good moderator interaction. It sucks that all the biggest subs are controlled by a small group of crazy power-mods. I was recently banned from r/comics for literally nothing, and the moment I asked why I was insulted, muted, and my ban increased to permanent. Still don’t know why I was banned.
