Would I get banned here for being over active? I got banned from reddit because they thought I was a bot. And don't want to repeat the same mistake here. Thank you ahead of time.

      go here: sallysbakingaddiction.com/red-velvet-cupcakes/ sorry still learning lemmy and don’t know how to do links yet.

        Links are easy! Use brackets [] to enclose your text and use parentheses () to contain the link.

        [Go here](sallysbakingaddiction.com/red-velvet-cupcakes/)

        The backslash \ is the escape character. That’s how I posted the above without it turning into an actual link.

        *text* for italics

        *text* for bold

        * text for a bullet point

        Plenty more, but those I the markups I commonly use.

        And can someone tell use how to paste code like on reddit?

      I keep hoping someone pulls that on me asking for a poem about cows, and then I can pretend to do it, but midway through the poem, it turns out I’m making it about their mom.

      For baking, I recomend King Arthur’s Recipe database.

      The frosting is an american buttercream- IMO sub the shortening for the same amount of butter… (the shortening tastes worse, it’s there to improve the color. Butter gives a slightly off-white. If you’re going to be adding food coloring and don’t care so much about taste… you can use all shortening for very brilliant colors. But, like. I won’t eat your baking.)

      (the reason I recommend KAF for recipes is mostly because they sell flour so the recipes are more or less fool proof- especially for things like GF treats. And if you fall to the ‘less’ side, they have a hotline to help get you sorted. no need to buy their flour, though.)

        Unfortunately, yes. They’re commonly found on tankie instances like lemmy.ml, lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net. But you can block these instances in your account settings.

    I got a permanent ban for quoting a movie, in a post about that movie, because the quote contained a slur. My new account got a permanent ban because I made a joke that wasn’t racist but happened to be about an Indian guy. Reddit sucks ass.

    • Don_Dickle@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Well it got to where it was almost an addiction when I had downtime where I was stationed at. I was commenting on stuff maybe like 50 or 60 times per post. Also probably posting about 80 times for links. I tried the button in my inbox where you could fight it being banned and that was of no hope. Then I tried making a different account then they banned me for using multiples.

      source
      • ccunning@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        For me personally comments are whatever. The problem is posts. With posts we’re still pretty small here so there’s not a lot of content but the content and engagement are fairly balanced. If you’re posting a ton it may end up spreading the engagement thin. I personally might block someone who’s posting 80 posts a day.

    Just don't spam and you'll be fine, reddit sucks and their broken-ass ban system is regularly abused by bots. They know and don't give a fuck about fixing it.

    source
    • Don_Dickle@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Ok on the spamming question. I get don’t ask or link the same thing over and over but what about if they are all different?

      source
      • FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Sure, as long as it's not the same website every time.

    Nah, if I see someone posting a whole lot I usually just block them

    That’s definitely not why you got banned, there are hundreds of spammers on reddit and most of them are still posting.

    • thorbot@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Bro Reddit is pure bot bullshit. Every sub is just generic Ai scraped questions. My favorite subs are literally 100% inane questions repeated over and over, there’s no content. It’s just “what do you think about XYZ?!” And there’s 4k comments that are almost the same as the last time it was asked. The place is fucking garbage

    No stupid questions, but repeatedly asking variations of the same question referencing your ban from reddit might catch up with you eventually.

    source
    • Ephera@lemmy.ml ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yeah, while these questions have mostly been too ridiculous to be considered, repeatedly asking what precisely warrants a ban sounds like you’re looking to walk that line.
      Just don’t walk the line and don’t consider your wildest Reddit experiences as that line.

      In particular, there is no point in asking these questions, because as we already elaborated on the first post, no one knows what will get you banned from individual communities or instances, since there’s a lot of different humans involved in the decisions.
      But the community is smaller, so if you’re posting good content and interacting with people in a friendly way, the moderators will likely know you and gladly give you the benefit of the doubt.

  • Etterra@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Getting banned from anything on Reddit isn’t exactly a difficult task. Hell I once got banned on some meme sub for something that they refused to tell me what it was lol. I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

    I’m happy you’re here. I’m new-ish to Lemmy too, but I’m pretty timid about posting. There are a handful of users I see posting regularly and they’re absolute pillars of the community. So I say go ham! If anyone gets tired of your awesome antics, they can just mute you.

    source
  • gedaliyah@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    All of the moderation here is done by actual human beings who are (mostly) reasonable. If they make a mistake, you can just message them, and they’ll fix it. No one is banned by an algorithm.

    In reality, you can’t actually be banned from lemmy, because it’s a federated platform. You can only be banned from an instance.

    Welcome brother, I was also banned from Reddit after being active on it since the great Digg exodus. For reference the post that got me banned was when I pointed out that American ADA laws guaranteeing public access have been around much longer than EU laws which is why they likely did not see as many disabled people in public places in Europe as they just can’t physically access them until the architecture catches up. Apparently that was considered bigotry in a European sub and was the final straw that got me permanently banned.

    Lemmie is by and large much more liberal and left leaning than Reddit is. (at least the subs I’ve visited have been.) I haven’t seen the retaliation or pre-emptive bans for just joining or posting in a particular sub that I saw over the last few years on Reddit though. I also haven’t seen any bans due to frequency or activity.

    Much like Reddit if you make a comment that goes against a subs meta or against the beliefs of the moderators they will find some way to ban you from their sub. I’d say many subs in Lemmie are less encouraging of discourse that does not fit within their beliefs.

    So even if you probably can’t get a site wide Lemmie ban you can still be banned from individual subs.

    Post and comment away, just keep in mind if your content does not fit the subs meta they will probably find a way to ban you from the sub.

      And even if you’re don’t get banned, just like Reddit, you may get down voted a lot if you go against the discourse of the current thread. But not sure if that’s fixable anywhere with big groups of people.
