Just wondering what brought everyone here.

Background: I was banned from Reddit for questioning the system and feel that true leftist ideologies on Reddit are severely censored (despite being considered one of the few last leftist social media platforms). I think the left needs more tech literacy and I hope the Fediverse is the future.

So, I am wondering what made folks curious about alternative options?

    I got banned from Reddit for making jokes about eating rich people. They warned me and temp banned me twice before the permaban. It was over like 6 months too, which means I don’t learn lessons and have a tendency to make those jokes often.

    No regrets.

      They also banned my wife and my downstairs roommate. I assume for being on the same wifi? Or ip address? Or something? Idk they were mad but I like to think I helped them in a way.

        Oh yes nobody has mentioned this aspect yet! Reddit can and will ban all connected accounts because of a perceived breach of the rules on one account.
