Just deleted my Reddit account after 4 years due to being wrongly banned for ban evasion and having all my appeals either rejected or ignored. Hope Lemmy’s a better place

      Welcome,

      Sometimes a fresh start is just what the doctor prescribed. Remember that unlike reddit where the algo shoves content down your throat, here you kind of have to build it brick by brick.

      Use this to start, search for your favorite reddit communities. There’s probably an alternate here.

    I’m mystified at how people get banned on reddit because I tried to get banned but failed; I assumed that I lacked the discipline to stay away so I thought I needed to be banned, but it turns out Lemmy is MUCH better for me so my account will just languish until they delete it eventually.
