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!

    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.

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