Basically what I mean is, did you also come here from reddit?

I came here after I got my Reddit account banned permanently. And the thing is, I don’t exactly know why I got banned. Nor what I did wrong. I always tried to follow the rules, post and comment appropriately and nicely, but on New Year’s Day last week, I got a message simply saying "Your account have been permanently banned for violating the rules.

But when I replied asking what rule or rules I unknowingly broke, they just messaged me back saying “you got banned because you violated the community guidelines”. So now I’m here.

What about you? Are you also a Reddit Refugee?

    Since the API exodus, yes.

    I made a very conscious choice to leave reddit at that time, due to that particular bullshit, and I don’t regret it.

    Doesn’t mean I don’t miss reddit though, because I do. Reddit has a lot more traffic which obviously means a lot more content in the sort of niche communities I really love.

    But I made the right choice. I don’t want to be part of that any longer. And the more of us make this choice, the better things will be for us all.
