I generally won’t say anything if I don’t enjoy a person’s posting, but since you asked, I will tell you my issues that I see. I tried to find some examples of things, but it looks like some of your content has been removed…
The first notice I had of you was something along the lines of you saying “hey fellow clits, how can I turn this place into Reddit?” People asked you to tone it down, and you did not.
The next day or so, I swear I saw you post that you were a guy. You were still being very exuberant, trying to learn how to take over abandoned communities, create copies of Reddit subs, and so on.
Now everyday, I see your posts everywhere, pushing down stuff from other regular posters. Your posts are all over the place in tone and topic. You have potentially serious things, edgelord stuff, and just random conversation things.
You’ve shown up out of nowhere, you start dominating people’s feeds, while not being respectful of the vibe of the place, trying to turn it into something we left behind, and constantly ignoring everyone’s polite feedback. You don’t present an honest persona, you don’t respect the communities we’ve built, and in some ways are actively sabotaging our work by trying to make this Reddit, in content and hyperactive in-your-face vibe.
Take a step back for a second. Browse Lemmy without posting or commenting and see how we work here. It’s a close community because it’s small and many of us are familiar with each other from building this place up the last year or so. We are very welcoming, but when you meet someone for the first time, you don’t barge in the house and act like you own the place.
I hope that makes some sense and you can appreciate some constructive criticism. I almost blocked you day 1, but you don’t seem malicious, just really bad at reading social cues.

Thats probably my only interaction with socail media is Reddit and lemmyworld. Yes I am a woman by the way. And I think being a woman I can say no to be a clit because I don’t have a dick. And am trying for more people to use it. I was told in no specific terms that to make a community active you have to post. And I would be lying if I said I did not want this instance to take over reddit. So when when a person searches for reddit alts the first thing they see is lemmy.world.

Fair enough. I was actually on your side of the dick/clit post as I agreed with your argument for using it, though it was not the way I’d choose to introduce myself or recommend anyone else to…
While we want this to be a growing and vibrant place, we also enjoy it being more chill than other spots. I just have a hard time trying to imagine someone as hyper in real life as your post and comment counts make you seem here. It’s like someone in a manic phase. For me, it’s just too much.
If it’s your genuine personality, I don’t want to crap on it, some people I’m sure enjoy it, but when my feed becomes the Don_Dickle Show instead of a nice blend of things from a variety of people, it makes me go do something else. I’d have no issue with a few posts a day and plenty of comments, but I don’t care who it is, no one person should dominate the feed, especially if they’re getting fairly downvoted. You may not be breaking rules or anything to get banned, but as I implied with my previous comment, you could benefit from learning who the audience here is a bit better and I think you’d have more success.
I wish you luck figuring it out, and I don’t want you to be banned or for you to have a bad time, but just remember to keep everyone else’s good time here in mind as well. ☺️

Point taken but ever since I have been on welbruton and working at a slow hospital my mind just races and reads alot of stuff. And I can’t help think that other people need the knowledge I learned too. But I will calm it down.

Well I appreciate you listening and I’m glad I talked to you. I want to see everyone enjoying themselves here, and there’s room for everyone here as long as they are respectful of others. I wish you luck crafting your online persona!
