The mods at r/popculture pointed it out. And then the screenshot above.
The subreddit drama
You're viewing a single thread.
Ive been on Reddit for 10 to 15 years. Its always been a strange place but ive never seen anything like what's going on at the moment.
- weird rules (like 'Luigi') being applied system-wide without being communicated
- automated actions applied to individual users site-wide, like allowing them to engage but preventing them from creating posts anywhere
- over zealous mods. I'm assuming a lot of mods got sick of it and left over the last few years and those doing the work are under experienced. Or maybe just AI. Its possible.
- GPTs engaging in posts and comments for training
- agents from hostile governments agitating and spurring on political discussions that favour their agenda.
So yeah I'm giving up on it now, its just no fun anymore.
Yeah, this sure. But I think primarily Reddit doesn't want its platform to be used to organize and protest. This is how they are setting the stage.

I am pretty sure a bunch of mods on big subreddits are actually Reddit employees cosplaying as normal users too.
Oh, and Reddit is now shadow banning your accounts when you evade a ban on a sub. So now I got all my accounts shadow banned because I ended up commenting on a sub I was banned on one account without noticing it, so I have zero reasons to go back to using reddit anymore. At least before I got a ban and was notified about how long it would take for my accounts to be usable again, now they are shadow banned without any notifications and I have no idea if they will ever go back to normal or not, so fuck it.
oh yea i know some admins can be the mods. there are 92 mods that own over 500 subs, so i would think they are part of this power group of mods. and then we got the lowly mods of the regular subs. i heard about the blanket shadowbans in another site, they still do that to people who had100s of accts, but it also hit regular people too, that dint even violate a policy, so im thinking its an AI doing all these bannings and so many innocents are just caught up, and they cant even repeal it.
I got banned three times in a month, and now I'm finally permanently banned. This is America.
5-6accts were simulatenouslly banned last month, because i was temp banned for reporting someone, so it triggered thier "AI to look for any account they can ban". they also retroactively(i assume) applied the ban to any accts you made, if any of your accts even if deleted years ago participated in getting banned in a subreddit. allegedly i heard a ban/shadowban can last over a year, but im pretty sure its arbitrary and most likely switched to being permanent in most cases.
r/technology decided to ban me for reporting obvious misinformation, and conversation manipulation around a trump post.
It's a censorship hellhole.
Once the humanity is taken out of a company, there is nothing left but abuse.
It was the last straw for me too. Fuck Spez.
its mostly the last bullet point, that resulted in all the above.
