I still use reddit for some niche topics that have like zero activity on Lemmy. But still, I feel kinda bad over it… What about you people?

I got banned and any new account I try to make gets shadow-banned. As far as I can tell, my offense was calling Elon Musk a Nazi when he did his Nazi salute during the inauguration. A mod warned me to not call him a Nazi because the ADL said it wasn’t a Nazi salute. Then a few days later he gave a speech for AfD in Germany and I commented “Still think he’s not a Nazi?” Next thing I know, I was banned forever.
There is no war in Ba Sing Se.
Stop signing up with the same email address and you won’t get shadow banned. Your email address is literally the only way they track you. Once I realized this, any new accounts I made with a fake email work just fine.
I’ve never used the same email account. I go to one of those websites that let you create a temporary email address and use that whenever I sign up for a new account. Not just for Reddit, but for most sites. I was very annoyed Lemmy wouldn’t let me create an account with a temp email address.
As another person pointed out, they track cookies too. I never save cookies, which is probably why I was able to create a new account just fine.
