On Digg there’s some drama because someone registered the community “/wallstreetbets,” and the admins took it from him and gave it to one mod of the subreddit “r/wallstreetbets.”
One day later I see this discussion about how Reddit registered trademarks for some high-profile subreddits.
This could be relevant for the Threadiverse.
IDK man, I just got banned from there today for downvoting a post that I just thought was bad - I didn’t even realize it was from an AI slop community until I got the ban notification.
Seems like maybe it’s hypersensitive mods in this case.
Maybe tailor your feed.
For one bad post? I don’t even mind the content generally, I just didn’t like that post and they’re so sensitive they couldn’t handle it. That’s really not on me if one downvote is all it takes to trigger them to ban me from five different communities.
You’ve been caught downvoting at least 4 posts

The mods of those comms do not ban from one vote.
So… they literally do ban from a community over one vote? Assuming your examples are right, I’ve interacted with StableDiffusionWitches once and now I’ve been banned.
Honestly, is the tool they’re using broken, or more likely just… not very good? Regardless something funky is going on, because you’re accusing me of having downvoted a post which you can see on my UI doesn’t show as having been downvoted - the other downvote in Stable Diffusion Art also just doesn’t show as something I’ve downvoted. Does the tool not account for un-downvoting content, maybe? I occasionally bump downvotes while scrolling, which I then undo - but I don’t even know if that’s what happened here.
It doesn’t really matter though - this is absurd behavior for a community to be engaging in. Even accepting the records are right, two of the four votes I’ve been condemned over were from seven months ago. That’s not “downvote troll” behavior, and it’s not even indicative of behavior from someone who cares enough that they need to “tailor their feed.”
Again, I didn’t care about them at all until I was banned from there. Now, I think they’re hypersensitive and need to be coddled so they don’t have to accept that their content is wildly unpopular with the wide userbase, and that you’re trying to defend that behavior with the weakest possible argument you could make for… some reason. Tell them to tone it down, maybe? Because this is ridiculous?
I’m sure it was “just one”. For sure.
It’s almost like you can just go check and see that it was literally just one:
FYI they have tools that tell them all the downvotes you’ve ever sent in that community, so if you saw one bad post a month and downvoted it without knowing it’s AI, their tools will make it look like you’re a “downvote troll”, whatever that means.
Sure, and theyre abusing that tool. I just went through every single post in that community for the last year+ and the only other interaction I have had with their content was here, where I upvoted a post I didn’t realize was AI:
These mods are pretty clearly just out of control, and it is embarrassing that db0 is allowing them to act like this. It’s ridiculous they presume they should be allowed to force their slop on /all browsers but they also get to mass ban people who didn’t care prior to ever being prevented from interacting with them over literally a single downvote.
