I just got comments removed and I’m blocked from the [email protected] community.
Is this okay? Why are we allowing Lemmy to turn into Reddit?
My comments were providing porn addiction support. They got removed and now I’m banned from commenting on any post.
There’s nothing more Reddit than making a thread on an unrelated community to throw a fit about mod decisions.
How is it unrelated? I’m directly asking Lemmy about Lemmy.
Na you were pushing a weird personal agenda and harassing people rather than dropping it.
Also, not everything you don’t like is “turning into Reddit”.
I was providing porn addiction support to porn addicts. Besides the point though. You used to be able to say pretty much whatever you wanted on Lemmy.
You were pushing porn addiction propaganda on people who said nothing about being addicted to anything in particular, let alone porn.

- I sense an implicit “and not be banned for it” in your statement
- it’s not true
- I doubt it’s been true literally anywhere ever, particularly online
- had it been true here, it wouldn’t have been a good thing
Propaganda? The people who were commenting needed help. I could tell they’re addicted to porn. I have a gift.
You’re addicted to people who are addicted to porn?
Your comments would have been fine in answer to someone seeking support for porn addiction/dependency, but it’s completely irrelevant in a tech community on a post about people circumventing silly restrictions.
You clearly came into the thread with a specific agenda which was irrelevant to the thread’s topic, and spammed the same comment in multiple replies. What did you expect? I don’t even entirely disagree with your opinions about pornography but do you seriously think this was the best way to communicate your point?
The whole post was about porn restrictions. Totally relevant. The people that were responding to me sounded like they were crying for help. They couldn’t even allow themselves to believe that porn addiction was possible. Their little genitals were like, “save me!” I had to do something.
Lemmy isn’t just one entity providing a server. Why not move onto another server (instance)? Better yet roll your own and play by your own rules.
99% of the other instances are dead
Technology is like, the most discussed topic in the entire Lemmy network and there are countless instances with communities revolving around it.
But hardly anybody participates outside the main ones. Outside the most popular communities you know Lemmy is dead.
It’s a 6 day ban from ONE community for spamming a copy/pasted comment completely off topic to what you posted them in multiple times. Just stop spamming when you’re allowed to post again next week.
Based on the modlog it appears that you were banned for trolling. If you feel it was in error, contact the mod. Otherwise, find a different community.
That’s the point. We’re not Reddit. Lemmy used to be a place where you could say pretty much whatever you wanted to. Disappointing.
Try to call out porn addiction and get banned. Thats when you know it’s a problem.

This is not “Lemmy”, this is Lemmy.world, which is as mainstream as is possible for Lemmy. Crying that all of Lemmy is like this smells like you never read past the headlines for the fediverse. You can say whatever you want on Lemmy, just don’t force someone else to either host you or listen to you.

Various instances always had various levels of moderation and unacceptable content. If you don’t like the policy, switch instances.
Lemmy.World and Lemmy.ml communities are essentially Lemmy. All other communities are dead. Your comment smells like opened canned fish left in the sun, eaten, then pooped out.

I feel like if there’s anyone being Reddit-like, it’s you.
I wonder why you got banned, certainly it can’t be your positive attitude

Define addiction? Do I watch a lot of porn? 3-4 times a week? Don’t think that’s addiction. Still have a very healthy sex life with my wife.
I didn’t say you’re a porn addict. Sounds like you’re not so certain about yourself though. That’s good. More people need to at least be open to the possibility.
Oh fuck off
[email protected] has always been a place where you can say whatever the mods will let you say. Make your own instance with blackjack and hookers if you want.
Why are we allowing Lemmy to turn into Reddit?
Good question.
Somebody thought it would be good enough to copy everything (except spez), and then the outcome would be fundamentally different
Welcome to the internet, where one thing you do not speak against is Porn or it’s addictive characteristics.
Also, it seems like you kept trying after having your comment deleted. Mods don’t like people attempting to spam the same thing. If your message is removed, take the message and move on, unless you feel like getting blocked like this. Unlike Reddit, there is no oversight on mods here. You can push it up the chain, but you might run into the mod of the community being the mod of the instance as well.
No spam. They were separate posts to different porn addicts. Unfortunate that certain Lemmy communities have devolved into less popular Reddit subs.
