The majority of reddit subs I’ve been banned from were for posting in other unrelated subs in violation of sadly unenforced moderation rules.
Then there’s being banned from r/atheism for “egregious immorality” - I look at it as a badge of pride to be banned from an atheism sub on grounds that sound like ones only a religious sub would use.
I’m only proud of the one, and only because of how weirdly out of sync with what you’d expect the given reason was.
Basically every other sub I’ve ever been banned from was a “you commented on a post on a sub we’ve since decided we don’t like, so we’ve summarily banned you with a bot just in case”.
I have a former friend who once got thrown out of a bar for “ordering a G&T instead of saying ‘gin & tonic.’” Bars are weird.
^this is a story I told for years, because anyone could get thrown out of a bar or something silly.
Here’s where things got tricky: Over the course of a few years, I heard a few more wild stories of how he got thrown out of bars “for a totally dumb reason.”

Go back to reddit if you agree with their moderation so much. You will prefer it there.
Nah I’m good. I have too much self respect to return to that shithole. All yours.
