Some of the new Reddit mods are so toxic. Instead of apologizing for the bot being too harsh and reinstating my submission, they just banned me because I dared to ask what exactly I didn’t “punctuate correctly”.

    This isn’t new. Reddit mods have been like this for a decade or more. And the admins let them get away with it because they get free labour from them.

    I’m guessing it was for lacking a period at the end of a sentence, even though as a title it’d be entirely appropriate without one. Plus the original quotes were totally fine. What a bunch of sanctimonious puckerbutt assheads. I used to hang around r/grammar and the shit the showerthoughts mods are pulling would never stand over there because it’s based on descriptivism. Any community with excessive grammar nazi shit written into the rules is already lost.

    The only way to use reddit is to never post. Read it if you need to, but use strong anti trackers and ad blocks. This way they won’t get to use or abuse you.
