No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

Maybe they only want people who don't make waves, stick to pun chains, innocuous comments, etc. Things like news subs though are full of angry rants so I'm not sure.

a read only site like FACEBOOK, they just want people browsing.

I never saw the point. I was pretty jealous with my data and pretty scrupulous with my vpn and would not use it without my ad blocker or privacy guard engaged. As soon as they wanted access to private messaging and making chat the default it was a signal that they no longer wished to be locked out of any conversation. I just made a new tuta.com account and will be back there aging up and account directly.
