… tells you all you need to know.
All reddit is compromised, why would they be any different?
Well it’s different, per sub. I am/was mod of /r/GMECanada, and we can still say ‘lemmy’ there and direct-link with no issues.
The lemmy keyword ban is definitely a thing on r/Superstonk; if I recall correctly I even got a scolding for mentioning lemmy once on r/GMEJungle though as well.
That was all back in July. I wouldn’t be surprised if reddit admins as a whole aren’t starting to crack down on mention of external platform migration discussions, though…
Sorry, I was overly strident. I’m sorry also to hear the jungle is that way, it was often a stronghold of decency.
Reddit hasn’t even completed IPO yet, so I do expect things to continue to worsen however. Why I’m mainly here instead.
Oh, no need to apologize to me :) I lost all enthusiasm for reddit around the July 1st timeframe with the API fiasco, and especially after the superstonk mods banned me for replacing my old comments (as a protest action) with a placeholder mentioning lemmy and encouraging users to try it out. IMHO my comments are my comments regardless of platform, so I assert I have a right to update them as I see fit, at any time. But the mods apparently did not agree.
“Whynotdrs” is also censored. It’s what got me a Permaban from SS actually
I can personally attest that ‘lemmy’ is a banned keyword on reddit /r/Superstonk. Mods said so in my perma-ban message.
They’re afraid Apes will escape their narrative-cage and start talking elsewhere. Might be merely mod power-tripping, might be mods with secret orders to suppress and contain/smother the entire movement.
I’ve taken to occasionally DMing apes on reddit in /r/Superstonk discussions when they talk about censorship letting them know lemmy is ‘out there’ waiting for them :P. I would encourage others here to do the same.
They have a thread about the sub being more cult-like but the author explicitely makes a point to say it’s not the mods.
lmao
The mods banned anyone who doesn’t think and speak specifically how they want. Of course it looks like a cult now.
