They don’t even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?
In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they’re absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it’s unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.
They can keep the permaban. I don’t give a shit anymore. I’m so over that god forsaken place.
Peace out.
Quick update:
I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn’t be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they’re being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.
Yeah. I thought it was pretty on topic. Presenting another social network where people can share without fear of getting trolled or receiving toxic and agressive replies to the most mundane posts/comments.
I’ve done the same and the reaction has been the same (though not deleted). I think it’s spammy.
I might create a new user account with ‘lemmy’ in the name if I really want to promote it, but I won’t be suggesting people come over unless someone asks me about it.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !canada@lemmy.ca
I likely would’ve removed the thread for being offtopic, but not permanently banned you.
Can you explain how this is off topic? The topic is Canada isn’t it? He’s inviting people to a place to talk about Canada.
It’s just meta promotion. I don’t know the specifics of their rules, but it’s the type of post I’d remove as a mod. I’d remove most meta posts.
