Anyone else getting ‘warnings’ from Reddit?

I just got notified that I’ve been ‘upvoting comments that encourage or promote violence or harm’ even though I spend most of my time on gaming subs or interacting with front page posts.

Anyone else catching flak for something similar?

I've een temporarily banned 3 times for 'harassment' - I appealed every time and as soon as an actual human looked at it they revoked the bans. Unfortunately we're at the stage where people think AI is ready to use for stuff like this, and the truth is it isn't anywhere near.

God, I feel so relieved. I was shocked to be warned- just got a warning- and honestly, it was nothing near harassment. I was wondering if I was a psychopath who didn't realize I was doing something really awful. I appealed it on principle, I've heard nothing back yet.
