RobotToaster ( @RobotToaster@mander.xyz ) 35•5 days agoNot a website, but a facebook group I’m in specifically has a rule against “going live” from the bathroom.

FaceDeer ( @FaceDeer@fedia.io ) 23•5 days agoThere was a politics subreddit I was on that had a “downvoting is not allowed” rule. There’s literally no way to tell who’s downvoting on Reddit, or even if downvoting is happening if it’s not enough to go below 0 or trigger the “controversial” indicator.
I got permabanned from that subreddit when someone who’d said something offensive asked “why am I being downvoted???” And I tried to explain to them why that was the case. No trial, one million years dungeon, all modmail ignored. I guess they don’t get to enforce that rule often and so leapt at the opportunity to find an excuse.

FaceDeer ( @FaceDeer@fedia.io ) 4•4 days agoYup. Fortunately unsubscribing from politics subreddits is generally advisable whether one has been banned from them or not.

Hadriscus ( @Hadriscus@lemm.ee ) 5•4 days agoWell, after a while you start wondering why so many people sit in chairs… It can’t really be a coincidence ?
