Reddit presents itself as a platform for open discussion, but in my experience it heavily suppresses legitimate content while claiming to support free expression. I attempted to share advocacy-related posts about animal protection and public petitions, and my content was repeatedly removed, filtered, or blocked without meaningful explanation.

The moderation system feels inconsistent, overly aggressive, and often arbitrary. Genuine efforts to raise awareness about important social issues are treated like spam, while low-quality or harmful content frequently remains visible.

What is most frustrating is the lack of transparency. Users are often punished or censored without clear reasoning, making the platform feel less like a place for discussion and more like an environment controlled by unpredictable moderation and automated filtering.

A platform that claims to support communities and conversation should not silence respectful advocacy and awareness efforts simply because they include petitions or activism. Reddit has become increasingly hostile toward users trying to promote meaningful causes.

Very disappointing experience.

Reddit deleted a completely inoffensive posting (see it below) of mine with the text:
Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit’s filters.

I just tried to find others having the same problem or perhaps a solution.

So I dont get it: what is still the use of reddit? Posting flowers and unicorns of being happy and good vibes? imho pretty useless though.

Here my original posting (as proof), which I also have posted here on this site without any problems:

Title:
365 days ban in rainbow six Siege without reason

Text:
I have got a 365 days ban on Rainbow Six Siege xbox for not complying with some codex but they did not specify for what.

No warnings, reputation normal, no teamkills, no trolling, no mousetrap, etc.

I had just some 11 ranked matches, 1 abandon. In casual some more games and more abandons but I thought that doesnt matter. Or does it?

the only thing I could suspect: I am kinda lazy in the warmup time with drones or building walls. could that have triggered flood reports?

but really 365 days without any warning? sounds weird

Redditt is a total joke. I was on it for 1 week and I somehow got banned for life. I've never been banned from anything else in my life and I am 54 years old. These automoderators that they use have no consistency. I could find 50 posts in 10 minutes that should have been deleted like mine was. It's terribly aggravating and it sounds like it's happening to a lot of people.

Reddit is far from a place for free speech. Moderators can easily control the narrative by filtering posts and comments without you ever realising it. Content is often deleted or hidden without notice, and you’ll only discover it if you check in private browsing mode.

Users can be banned for the smallest disagreement or for breaking one of Reddit’s ever-changing rules or "special rules" for a subreddit. Some moderators quietly filter out targeted users’ content rather than banning them outright, possibly to avoid backlash.

Even minor differences of opinion or innocent contributions can attract instant downvotes, fueled by a strong tribal instinct and “cult-like” groupthink. Genuine discussion is often replaced by echo chambers that reward conformity over curiosity.

Active users might even be wrongly flagged as bots, while others escape this entirely. Overall, Reddit feels less like a space for open discussion and more like a controlled environment where dissent is quietly erased.

Occasionaly, there will be useful discussions but they are becoming harder to find and even harder to take part in without it feeling or becoming toxic.

Mostly useless. You may find a niche group with smarter people, but most people on here are not intellegent to have a discussion with. It's sad that Google will show Reddit results, which in turn, causes the general population to have a lower intellegence.

Imagine being banned for a week for simply saying that a bad president(Donald Trump. There, I said it here too) should be dealt with in a way that counts(I was thinking "Jail", btw), but the automod immediately said "You have been banned for THREATENING VIOLENCE". The automod is dumb as bricks, by the way, and I have received no human input. God help this site....

This really deserves 0 stars i was haveing a great experience on Reddit until my account. u/MammothCommon5272 got suspended for no reason. When i filed an appeal for 3 a day ban i only had all cause i called 2 mod admins in a library club fake and gay 🤡 and i got suspended for no reason. Absolutely stupid and unbelievable Reddit is a trash worthless company so is yt as well!

They ban you and give you serious warnings over nothing. I've only been on reddit for 3 years and this is my experience. You say any trigger word a few too many times and instead of actually reviewing it they just ban you. I don't know if they're over worked or what at reddit and just have to deny everything they get to get through the flagged pile as quickly as possible or what, but this has happened to multiple times and I've had entire accounts banned over it, then you get in trouble for making new accounts because they fall under the same IP address or something Idk I'm not a tech dude but they know it's you making new accounts sometimes somehow. The reddit team very clearly takes 0 consideration, context or time looking into these matters. I was talking about the love is blind reunion for god sakes saying this guy deserved to be clocked by Nick Lachay and got banned because apparently the word clocked is inciting violence, they denied the appeal as well which is pretty much proof they don't pay attention to what they're doing when they say no. I also got banned and my appeal denied for saying they should eat Shauna next in the yellowjackets subreddit?? Like are you serious that show is about eating people and people genuinely make those jokes 24/7, there is a flair with the name snackie on it for one of the subreddits lol... meanwhile entire subs exist where people rate people and say creepy things and misogyinstic, racist, or homophobic and that is allowed? They can post porn too? Murder? Pedo stuff apparently I seen in another comment??

It's just a lack of care on reddits behalf for any of the users on the platform, it genuinely just feels like a ticking time bomb for everyone of "how long they can last" and it's infuriating rubbing regular innocent users noses in bans when misogynistic trolls and others like that get off scot free.

It just leaves you discouraged and frustrating and wondering when everyones day will come where they eventually get banned for any accumulation of non offensive offences that were marked. Just wondering what fluke or angry mod or BS reason that goes against freedom of speech or removing all context will be the final nail in your coffin? It sucks because you grow really attached to having your reddit accounts as well there are things you have to rebuild and relationships and credit lost even. Some people put a lot of time, money and effort into these things and they have 0 respect for the users of their site who they profit off of.

Every time I go to "reddit" I get several of "We have a server error". Then they tell me my post was deleted because I failed too many felatios at reddit. And as a good-bye they post the red "We have a server error" again... Nasty website, one of the nastiest ever, that I try to stay away from as much as I can.

bruh they are extreme trash, they keep sending the same thing to my post over and over again!!!! Act like 1 year old babies sending the same thing to other peoples post over and over again!!!!! DON'T USE REDDIT!!!!!!!

What exactly is Karma? My account has been for five months, and I only posted one article (not promotional or spam) with one video, yet you filtered my post and suspended my account.

This is a terrible platform.

I did a review against my better judgment. I knew based on my previous experience that more than likely it would be flagged by their algorithms (bots). They lure you in to join in a conversation. I was emailed by the bot administrator saying that I didn't have comment karma or something to that effect. Whatever that means. It was perfectly harmless comment about a writer that because of her misguided sense of morality expurgated earlier versions of her books. I simply said that this was devolving not evolving and that she was setting back progress. Reddit like other titans of industry live in their ivory towers oblivious to what is going on around them. Using algorithms to monitor content. This unfortunately is becoming more and more prevalent which sets up a dangerous precedent. This is censorship the very thing my comment was about. It seems the vast majority of this writer's loyal readers were equally upset and distressed and dismayed. I also said this is Eighteenth century British English literature writer Samuel Richardson all over again his readers, acquaintances and contemporaries arguing with him to give his book Clarissa a different ending. But he absolutely refused to budge, because of his moralistic upbringing. And for this comment my review will never be seen. So much for enlightenment.

The company is more than okay with threats of rape, brags of paedophilia and hate speech being on their platform.

But if you say anything bad about the Trump admin, you get perma-banned. These Nazis need to be removed from society and locked up

I've have never witnessed this much misogyny, hatred for women and children, and utter disregard for human life on this website. Everyone on this site seems to be very anti-women, especially in the tennis sub, and also posting pictures of child abuse, murder, torture, and other horrific things. I'd never suggest anybody to use this website in their life.

This website should be completely shut down, and forgotten about.

This website is nothing but haters, bias discriminating individuals who just dislike society. Reddit has become so full of bots it's gotten bad. I have lost track of how many accounts I've gone through just to continue this daily habit.

Please delete all ice videos as many of these violate the terms of service for harassment, threatening and violence. Please delete all death videos especially of alex pretty. The gal doesn't even blur the image. this is disrespectful. I can't believe how people praise and support people who take lives. These days. It's sickening. Mods should just remove these vids asap. I report many of them but they don't take them down.

I honestly don't know why I keep fueling my daily reddit habit. A few years ago we ran into an issue where one of the family members accounts got a severe ban on it. They site kept attacking all the other users accounts and thought we were all one person instead of a multi use computer. This thing terminated all our accounts without just cause. After tracking it down it was all because of one post stating about a homeless person in the city was dangerous and why the city officials were not doing anything about it. This went too far. I had to nuke my computer, put a new ip address on it and the router as the ai was attacking the router. I had to use vpns and a private mode safe browser like brave. I never had an issue since. This one sort of peeved me off. Apparently I'm not the only person to have this issue.

I was blocked from my account for some reason and I tried several times to do what Reddit suggested but it never worked and you can’t actually talk to anyone to try and get your issues fixed.

So I'l repeat for anyone who cares and can see what I'm writing, because every single site online now is taking us down. Do you know what shadow banning is???

People WAKE UP, we are in WWIII. Do you get it yet???

It's called a Silent war for a reason.

Reddit supposedly used to be about FREE SPEECH. I just read that a month or so ago and laughed.

Did you know they killed one of the founders?

Anyway, since I am blocked from hiring freelancers from every site (that's what happens when you speak the Truth about what is going on), I decided to go to reddit to post there, but I couldn't because I'm a non profit and can't afford $15/hour, so I tried to make my own group and THEY BANNED ME LOL

This was a year or two ago.

Recently the Upwork group I was in put me in jail because I had told someone I was hiring people. I can't remember if I said a VA, WP expert or what.

I NEVER gave anyone a hiring ad, I just made a comment and that's against the na.zi's RULES.

If you haven't already figured it out, the evils do NOT want us hiring or you getting a JOB!!!

The only reason I started going on the site is because that's all I was being shown on the evil search engines.

You do know that the SEs control what you think, right?

If all you see are their lies, then you will believe in those lies.

The evils are dismantling the entire net. My site doesn't even show up in na.zi goolag because I'm shadow banned there too. I use Yandex. Not great, but at least somewhat better.

They have even removed sites from the wayback. Remember when it was supposedly hacked?

Yeh, that was the evils.

Anyway, I finally got my reddit account back, but now if I say anything about the Truth, I'm shadow banned and everyone thinks evil reddit is protecting them from someone who is FIGHTING FOR THEIR RIGHT TO LIVE. LOL SMH

Slaves just love being slaves!

I've even had PMs I've written be blocked. I couldn't PM someone.

The people on evil Reddit have serious emotional issues. I'm not talking a little bit, but a LOT.

I just had one POS argue with me because I was having problems getting into my gmail account which I never use because I use TB for my email.

The evils did something so I couldn't find out how to get in. The page was different and I didn't know where I was.

Tons of people rushed to help me (clearly gmail worshipers LOL) & I finally fixed the issue myself by deleting the cookies. This POS claimed I didn't know how to use gmail.

I've been online since '96 children. Actually since '94, but since people on Compuserve were horrific bullies, I didn't go back on until 2 years later.

So this POS tries to tell me I'm the only one experiencing this in the entire WORLD as IF he knows billions of people worldwide LOL

But it that may be true. Do you know what the evils can do to your phone and computer? You could see a different site than I see. It's not like AB testing hasn't been around forever.

You think I'm lying? Ok, keep deluding yourself.

Anyway, the very angry leftist WOKE low IQ zombie who couldn't believe someone would challenge his royal highness must have gone to my profile, saw my site about the Truth, got upset, had to tell me I was a problem and he shouldn't even have helped me.

I don't fight with children, when I realize a person has cognitive & huge emotional issues, I walk away. You can NOT argue with a zombie, they are too low IQ.

Then he bans me after making his bully comment.

I had a bookkeeper who doesn't understand English flag my question because she didn't understand something I said when I commented to her. She said my question was clickbait or something.

I've had more people downvote everything I say so I can't even post in some groups because of the communist karma credit score system which is where the evils are taking us by the way.

I believe that Reddit is the test case to see how many people will rat out and attack their fellow brothers and sisters and help the evils take us down.

Well, I can tell you a huge portion WILL.

You can blame the evils all you want, but look in the mirror and admit what you have done to create this prison planet we are forced on.

Yesterday two of my posts were censored.

All I wanted was help figuring out what kind of we.ed pipe to buy. I guess that's a SIN TOO.

They wouldn't allow that in the weed or smoking groups LMAO SMH

No one helps me when I need help. The odd time I get some people who respond, but that's usually about a history question, nothing to do with helping me with my computer or site.

Every group has tons of rules and you know why???

BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE WE ARE HEADED.

In fact, that's where we already are. We are SLAVES, but you people don't even know what FREEDOM MEANS, so you think this is normal.

You can reach me at ourfreesociety dot and you know the rest.

On February 12, 2026, we filed six formal complaints with Reddit through every available channel — Moderator Code of Conduct, Community Harassment, Trademark, and UK Online Safety Act. We submitted a 14-page formal complaint, US trademark certificates, and documentation of 35+ enforcement actions across 16+ platforms proving $770,000+ in harm caused by two moderators of r/BlytheDolls who have run a coordinated defamation campaign for 46 months.

One moderator personally owns an attack website and uses her Reddit mod privileges to promote it while deleting positive content and rejecting reports against herself. The site publishes home addresses where children live. She admits on her own site she cannot prove her accusations yet publishes false criminal allegations against a business with zero criminal record in 26 years of operation.

Every other platform reviewed the same evidence and acted. Medium SUSPENDED the operator's account. Google REMOVED her URLs. Sitejabber REMOVED her entire listing. A blog host confirmed her content was defamatory and took it down. 35+ actions across 16+ platforms — every single one acted.

Reddit responded seven hours later with two sentences: "We are unable to determine that the content violates local law." No analysis of our evidence. No review of moderator abuse. No acknowledgment of the trademark infringement or children's addresses being published. A template rejection without reading the complaint.

We are established since 2000, serve 100,000+ customers in 150+ countries, featured by Forbes, BBC, The Guardian and Vogue Italia, Trustpilot 4.8/5, Etsy Star Seller. Three customers directly cited these Reddit threads when filing chargebacks, causing permanent PayPal deactivation and Stripe account closure.

Reddit has an F rating on the BBB with 200+ unanswered complaints. This is not a failure — it is policy. They do not review complaints. Businesses targeted by moderator abuse have no recourse. We have escalated to Ofcom, the UK ICO, the FTC, the California Attorney General, and the BBB. Legal proceedings are being prepared.

What doesn't go wrong here? Unless you follow the narrative you get spanked. The site is over moderated with one sided thoughts.

Not sure why I am not getting any points. I sign up few days ago and i did some comments but no points so far. how do you guys get so many points ?
