The bizarre bans is what made me leave recently. Banned from a default sub i had been in for years for posting a link. There was no rules against links and the reason given was "we don't like the link" then told "we don't have to give warnings" when I asked why I would be permanently banned for doing something that isn't against the rules. Then that same thing happened in another sub the next day. I don't know what's going on there but it's almost like they want to cull the users who aren't conforming to the way they want the content to be ingested.

    My BIL asked me how I was streaming sports so I sent him the site and he complained that the site i sent him to had a bunch of ads. I always forget there are people in the year of our lord 2026 who still don't use ad blockers. I thought web condoms were widespread by now.

    Because if you want to see anything outside of your constructed bubble, you will have to add it intentionally. There are plenty of communities i wouldn't know about because I'm new. By using all or popular, i can stumble upon things from time to time.
