    I register on reddit 17 years ago. Before the great migration from digg. I remember /r/programming being the first sub to reach 100k subscribers.

    I got banned for saying in the /r/europe sub that russia banning youtube in russia was a good thing because then we in the west would get less russian propaganda. Got banned for a couple days. Left and never looked back.

    /r/programming is dead already since around a decade. All the good discussions moved to hackernews and lobsters.

    EDIT: never forget that spez admitted to silently edit user comments that criticized him

      one of the things i noticed, banning is a taboo on many reddit sub, you cant discuss bans in any form. although i think they misconstrued your comment.
