News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Ehh . . sort of?
Appealing a ban for a social media post is . . . I dunno. Weird.
Well in this case, my best guess is I've been banned because I contacted a mod team that doesn't want to hear from me. Problem is, they're leaking sensitive chats from back when I was a mod and using them to attack me on other platforms. I asked them to stop. I'm a victim of harassment, but they probably reported me and the Reddit employees don't care enough about doing their jobs to investigate. I've been in situations like this before, and I was able to resolve it through the appeals process. But that's not going to happen if they don't tell me precisely why I've been banned or let me appeal it.
A surefire way to make a company care, is to sue them. Just saying.
I already contacted the police about the situation and they said it's not illegal. And I'm way too poor to sue a billion dollar company.
IANAL, but if they're using private conversation contents without your permission to harass you... that sounds illegal to me.
And you don't need to be rich to sue anyone. To win the case, maybe, but not just to sue.
The law doesn't exist to protect people, it exists to protect capital. If you're expecting to law to help trans people deal with abuse, you're looking up the wrong tree.
