I bet the fediverse wouldn't censor a post about reddit because the fediverse isn't a bitch.

MODERATORS
People here censor all kinds of shit they don't like lmao
Mods!! This one, right here. Thanks
Reddit took action faster about Lemmy than they did responding to the epidemic of CSAM subs.
Reddit currently has an active and massive beastiality sub. They don’t allow real images, but they have comment threads with discussion and advice. Just as with r/jailbait, people post fishing for the real stuff.
I left reddit because they kept resisting the removal of subs that directly used the platform to sell CSAM under the guise of a specific niche of porn which normally is legal. Direct contact with reddit to explain why it was CSAM went nowhere.

That sounds right for the company whose CEO was appointed moderator of r/jailbait. This was before you had to accept an invitation to be moderator, but fuck Spez regardless.
How can you look more alien than Zuckerberg?
He was the inspiration for reddit's logo
No, the logo is cute
omg the top comment just got deleted with over 500 upvotes
I think it was when it was edited to include specific links to Lemmy instances, instead of the join-lemmy.org website
I still see the comment on Spaduf's profile, but it shows as deleted in the post
I think maybe the link to lemmy.world is what triggered their filter? because that was edited in
Reddit is scared. Good job getting the screenshot.
Is 500 upvotes that much on reddit?
On lemmy its huge, but on reddit i have seen posts with twice that in niche subreddits
For a comment it's a lot yea, especially since the thread was still pretty new. It was the top comment in that thread by a large margin.
Gotta be. It was right after I made the edit.
actually I think it was mander.xyz for some reason? and it doesn't seem to happen in r/fediverse
no wait, something else is also doing it, midwest.social is also doing it, lemmy.world is clear, infosec.pub is clear, ttrpg.network is not allowed
no idea how Reddit or r/technology chose which instances to ban lol
A word block-list isnt that rare
Another win for public modlogs. We get a little more transparency.
Oh crap
Let's fucking go, this is great to see! Remember to be nice to the new users if you see them around.
It made me make an account here. I also convinced the group chat to move to signal last night.
Same! It was two groups and I didn't actually have to convince anyone. It turned out we all had Signal all along, but were binding eachother to stay on WhatsApp, I dunno, through some weird ass inertia I guess.
Based
Hey, can you go to /r/Cleveland, and convince them all to move to /c/Cleveland?
And /r/ClevelandGuardians to move to [email protected]?

Was reading through the thread and holy shit I swear half the comments are anti fediverse propaganda.
I wonder how long till the post gets removed.
Edit: would it be immoral for me to mass bot the thread with AI powered pro fediverse propaganda?

You can try, but you'll probably get flagged
U would be surprised what u can do with an account list a proxy list and a tor connection.

Aside from what Blaze mentioned, that's also not really the kind of publicity that we want. Better to just respond to individual users and encourage them to try Lemmy out.
We should really avoid antromorphizing non-humans. Call them bots, like most of them probably are.
Was reading through the thread and holy shit I swear half the comments are anti fediverse propaganda.
Some comments are suspiciously skeptical. If they were this skeptical before joining then they never would've joined Reddit lol. Someone just tried to tell me that the report button on Lemmy doesn't do anything.
And people talking about bots too lol Reddit will literally repost a 1 year old post with identical title and copy-paste the top 100 comments from the original too, talk about bots! And they aren't labeled as bots! At least bots here are labeled and you can hide them all instantly.
And then they ask for extreme details on how everything works and try to become a master at it before even signing up. Is that how they signed up for Reddit and Discord? I doubt it.
No way these people were that closed-minded and stubborn when they were signing up for Reddit.

Ah, a worthy reason to dust off the ol account
Yep! I'm on there right now directing people to Lemmy
Hey, can you go to /r/Cleveland, and convince them all to move to /c/Cleveland?
And /r/ClevelandGuardians to move to [email protected]?
Just threw in a link in both subs for anybody interested in getting off Reddit:)
Just saw your comments there, quite funny
Would if I could but I deleted my account and Reddit has been blocking my connection for months anyway.
They block cookies comrad.
I would help, but I honestly don't have the password anymore. I don't think I signed up with an email, but if I did it was a dummy one. I wish I could help.
Edit: Also, I didn't know about this bridge for Mastodon:
if you want your Mastodon posts to also show on Bluesky then use this bridge https://fed.brid.gy/ you only need to follow the account @[email protected] (~~note: is this a typo?~~ It is not a typo. It will follow you back and make sure to accept the follow) and it will automatically bridge you
the bridge is pretty nice, I would recommend everyone on compatible platforms to use it (Bluesky, and probably any AP microblogging platform, but I've only tried it with Mastodon)
