    Lemmy is worse on one hand and better on the other. You could be banned from an instance for much more spurious reasons than you’ll be banned on Reddit, but you then you can just move to another instance.

      I’ve had the opposite experience.

      On Reddit I’ve actually had to self-censor my comments to avoid them from being nuked from orbit by Automoderator. I legit can’t use words like ‘incel’, ‘OnlyFans’, ‘e-girl’, ‘Trump’ etc on most subreddits. It actually feels liberating to be able to speak my mind here.

      Idk about much more spurious reason, could just be a specific mod thing that you came across on here but not on reddit. I could be wrong but I don’t see any reason lemmy would be worse on this metric.

        By spurious I mean there is a wider pool of weaker reasons for banning.

        Would you think the frequency and application of bans on say lemmygrad would be more or less spurious than Reddit or lemmy.world, for example?
