Reddit says the “vast majority” of users won’t be affected.

    The only subreddit I’ve been visiting is LeopardsAteMyFace and I got a warning. How is it inciting violence if it’s ALREADY happened?

    I mean when everyone else is jettisoning moderation, reddit is cracking down on bots and trolls? I don’t hate it.

      Sure, but isn’t Reddit the one who gets to choose what counts as bannable?

    Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this started happening at Lemmy too. Its a lot easier to control what kind of content is on a platform when you do something like this.

    Now, I don’t particularly think this is a good idea, but I can see the benefit of this as well. People have the freedom to upvote whatever they choose, even if I think they are dumb for doing it, and they shouldn’t have to worry about anyone other than law enforcement or lawyers (in extreme edge cases) using that information against them.

      This wouldn’t even be possible on Lemmy.
