I got banned, but I don't know why?
I didn't use my account for a long time, because reddit is just bad and is only usable if you have questions to a specific topic, because a lot of people are there.
So after a while I had a specific question again and wanted to log in and a message like "Your account is temporarily blocked. If you don't know what this means, type something in this edit field". So I typed "I don't know why I am banned?" into this field and after some weeks I got unbanned without even getting an email about it.
No idea why I was banned or why I was unbanned!?
Reddit and other big players are just banning people automatically. I read about some stories on Twitter and Instagram were the people didn't know what they did wrong and got banned and they somehow lost their whole (online) existence, because for all other people you don't exist anymore and move on. But after they survived the "shock" they say their lives are much better now.
Good answer. Yea dude honestly I feel a lot better. I know I don't have any friends but I'm going on Amazon texting people and just doing everything else I stopped doing bc I had reddit
I didn't understand what exactly you are doing on Amazon? I don't use Amazon for years now, because this is just a bad company and giving them money would support a whole machinery of destruction. But what I wanted to say is, maybe Amazon added some features for communication, because I didn't understand what you are doing socially there?
