Worst, joined posted got shadow banned for Posting the same advise several times in a disk golf forum. All the questions where the same so I used the same advise. That fact that they ban you, do not tell you about it and you have to figure it out and then have no process for getting unbanned other than appealing daily. So not appeal and wait your turn. No appeal daily and hope they pic your appeal to resolve. I will do nothing but bad mouth reddit for the rest of my life. The worst.

If you have the wits and foundational knowledge to separate fact from fiction there's a lot of good info here and people with experience willing to pass on their knowledge. Outside of that the site is a joke and I've deleted my accounts. You don't need an account to read, only to participate, and if it ever moves to needing an account to read I'll just stop using the site completely. Avoid the discussion forums. Off topic trolling and locker room behavior are rampant and mods don't care about that but say something in discussion that doesn't fit an accepted narrative or agenda and you'll quickly find yourself banned from the sub by mods or admind. You dont need to say anything that's peppered with cursing or is offensive to be banned either because apparently people feel entitled to NOT have to hear anything that calls their view into question or disagrees with it and YOU WILL BE BANNED FROM SUBS LEFT AND RIGHT DAMN NEAR EVERY TIME YOU SPEAK. ECHO CHAMBER MEMBERS ONLY AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT ONLY POLITICAL THREADS, ITS ALL ACROSS THE PLATFORMS. Mods and admins have way too much power to ban and every ban i have received with the exception of ONE has been over opinion. The one ban that wasn't for opinion was under a rule that didn't even apply to my comment but they twisted themselves in knots to try to fit the square peg into the round hole so that they could ban me. I wished ill on a total jerk and while inappropriate depending on your stance on dealing with jerks, certainly is not a threat by any definition of the word, but that's how they justified that one instance. The other dozens of sub bans before I had enough of the Russia and deleted my account didn't even come with a reason and many of those subs I only had a single comment in and those comments were purely opinions free of cursing or vulgarity, though from the looks of things that wouldn't be reason to ban anyway because reddit is full of cursing and vulgarity so im left with the conclusion that my viewpoint and opinion is what got me banned from those subs.

It's hard to believe this site was founded by someone who promoted freedom of speech. Now, this site is so censored that it's almost impossible to post anything. Want to see what social media would look like when no one can post anything? Go to Reddit.

Worst biased and censored page on the internet. Full of power-abusing 'moderators' who bans everyone who has a different opinion. This is where the internet's Facism is born...

The least you can do is let people know why you ban their account.

(Appeal is pointless as far as I can tell)

Hard to keep track when after a few comments your account just goes poof

(I have seen plenty of accounts with comments worse than mine so I don't know what your algo and filter wants)

It is already hard enough to post anything without the mod interfering with bias.

Especially when you speak out about bad experience of certain business on their subreddit full of fanboys/girls

Take so much effort to write a negative review post without getting deleted in that context

On Reddit you can post all the porn you want, but they will ban your account if you’re discussing tarot cards. Make it make sense.

It’s full of toxic moderators who will ban you a heartbeat trolls , decent groups are hard to find it’s full of free speech fascist who love trump

Reddit is a very low quality website. Basically it is all about censoring and the accumulation of childish 'badges'. If you say anything that they deem is remotely politically incorrect they remove your post.

Stay off this site altogether. Nothing but censorship. No free speech possible. Anything you say that they just dont like, you will be permanently banned.

Nothing but bullies and trolls. The people on this website only see a world through their parents basements and computers. They probably can't even drive to Wawa without their computers on. Nothing but trolls on computer. Also the website advocates recreational abuse and bullying. Just terrible. Use the internet without it. Nothing but bullies.

Reddit is nothing but hate and censorship and scammers I got scammed out of $50 clicking on a link they never did anything but suspended my account when I did a chargeback to get my money back

Garbage propaganda pushing left wing echo chanber.

It’s the worst most censored piece of garbage websight . The mods don’t know what they’re doing and what made me delete my account was all the horrible things that were allowed to be posted about the Charlie Kirk assassination . Shame on all of you lowlifes

Highly facist racist site, definetly a site the fbi, cia and Mi5 need to look at , its a breeding ground for transgender and other extremist facist shooters

Impossible to navigate, and when you complete a story and you want to post, it lets you restart ... wasted hours without succeeding. What's the point, make it user-friendlier and simpler !

Yes people it’s true! Reddit Sucks, and waste of time. I post a simple ideas about driving for door dash, got removed. Nothing in my post go against their rules.

Reddit needs to stop banning its users for no reason. The way it's headed, it's not going to be gaining very many new users if it bans all of them!

This place would be potentially a more friendly, less toxic place than stackexchange and similar communities, to discuss freely of pretty every topics, including taboo topics, and with a very wide audience. Unfortunately, it is designed in such a way that, unless you are an expert ready to spend hours and hours on this community, you must be ready to only get frustration and no help. I understand that everything has its rules, but when such rules are too complicated, tyrannic or exclusive, that is never a good thing. I had an account since 2020 but after 5 years I decided to delete in, after yet another rush of rage and disappointment. Even if you try to always be polite, educated, consistent with topics, to formulate your questions well, 9 times out of 10 you can't post, some moderators are always ready to delete your post and without a sound reason. Either human or bot moderators. More than often you can't post in subreddits because you haven't enough "karma" (reputation), but gaining it is definitely hard, even if you are in good faith (simply said, pretty nobody is ready to cast you a +1 vote, to help you rising your karma, no matter if you try to rise valid or intelligent points !)
Another very stupid and frustrating thing is that a lot of threads get archived (frozen) either automatically or by moderators from time to time: thus, one is often forced to open a duplicate topic in case he has anything to add or to ask. Very stupid !
Let me also add some minor annoyances, like pointless messages by auto-moderators, a lot of people starting their posts with TLDR, the infamous NSFW filter and more stupid annoyances.
In short: it could be a very useful community where you can find suggestions and experiences hardly found elsewhere, but you won't get any help unless you are a guru or a priviledged user, who maybe has developed digital addiction spending hours and hours to earn some popularity and reputation (definitely un-healthy). Such a place instead should be opened to anybody who is in good faith and who just tries to either get help or share his experience, without any discrimination

Reddit is the only place where you go to a "sub" (thread) called "r/ihatereddit" just to be downvoted for saying that you hate Reddit and just don´t dare to justify yourself because then you are instantly banned (which is a good thing because then you don´t have to deal with dumb people).
