I think I finally reached my breaking point with reddit (about time). Earlier this month the humorless admins of /r/teslamotors banned me for posting a video of my custom charge port cover. A day or so later I mistakenly posted on the sub using my secondary account. That’s on me. The /r/teslamotors admins gave me a permaban and reddit gave me 7 day site ban. I can take my lumps so whatever.
However, apparently I commented today on /r/teslamotors using the account that received the permaban. Dumbass reddit gave me another 7 day site ban for ban evasion. WTF? Either a software bug allowed me to comment or /r/teslamotors lifted my ban for some reason.
Neither of those constitute ban evasion IMHO. I’m also tired of using old.reddit.com in phone browser since they killed apis.
Welcome to Lemmy! Fair warning, a vocal part of the user base here is anti-Tesla.

I’m not, so I guess I’ll contribute to evening that population out now that I’m here.
It’s not like there aren’t vocal anti-Elon/Tesla/EV people on reddit. I wanted an EV and didn’t consider any other vehicle because of the range and charging network. My car is almost 5 years old and we’ll see what’s out there in another 5-10 years.
Yeah, I saw that on Reddit too. It just seems like here there’s a lot of people who jump on anyone for even wanting an EV here. A lot of folks think that bikes and public transportation are viable solutions for everyone’s daily needs. It feels like a lot of people here think that since EVs aren’t a perfect solution, that we shouldn’t consider them at all.
I have an ebike too but that doesn’t get me everywhere. EV works great for me. Almost 5 years old, over 90k miles and no complaints to speak of. Thanks for the heads up.
Notice that I got downvoted? That’s exactly my point. Lol
Most are wholesale anti-cars in general.
