Banned me for speaking about 'Other Subs' even though Lemmy isn't even part of Reddit! XD

Looks like I'm here for a while! Better get myself comfy!

Because if you mod a sub like that, you can make decent money controlling the narrative to support your own positions.

I don't know why so many impressionable people never understood that, or expect any other meme stock community to not eventually do the same.

You said the forbidden word. I wouldn't be surprised if Red dit implemented a sitewide ban on "Lemmy" "threadiverse" etc

Nah it's the superstonk mods that are weird

I just find it funny how the mods of a community with almost 900 thousand members are so threatened by the mere mention of a different online community with merely a few hundred members. what are they so afraid of?

so insecure and controlling, don't even THINK about going somewhere that isn't within their control. but the ironic thing is that the more that they abuse what little power they have in this world, the more apparent that corruption becomes to everyone, which will only accelerate the motivation for people to search elsewhere for discussions.

It's funny, because I've mentioned lemmy many times on SS and other subs leading up to the rexxodus .. and I haven't been banned. It seems completely arbitrary. Maybe they're specifically afraid of the lemmy.whynotdrs.org instance.

We need to spread the word about this DRSyourGME community on whynotdrs lemmy instance.

Once we are back to where was r/DRSyourGME before getting banned, we will be unstoppable

Oof, what a reaction.

Power doesn't panic. But they're panicking for real.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Genuinely gross. They could have built their own community here and acted as leaders, instead they're tightening their grip on a weak power trip.

I only go on SS to share my flair 😁

lmayo, just went and searched for your profile to find a comment. Well done!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

👍 surprised I haven’t been banned yet. Another user and I discovered a month or so ago that banned things on SS can be applied to flair, the message is still deleted like normal but the flair still applies 🤣🤣🤣 I use to have 🟣 DRSyourGME 📚

I saw that too! Totally transparent... btw, we also have a dedicated [email protected] community exactly for transparency like this!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Hahaha, so dumb. I was permabanned last week for insulting spez. Official reason was for harassment lol. No warning or anything.
