Yeah it makes sense now. I think the reason for the ban is that they want people to circle jerk on their own platform. So they don’t want links to outside domains, which is what my subreddit did.
fair point… but unfortunately many communities i follow are only on reddit… the alternatives are just not big enough also… i think this monopoly can only be broken with government funding… i can’t think of any other solution
Welcome to Lemmy. r/Lemmy was banned too lol.
It’s crazy that they can just do that, and nobody cares.
That’s why we are all here, once reddit wanted to monetize the data and increase profit it all turned to shit. Its not a freely open forum anylonger

If they do care, you probably just don’t see it because of the censorship

it’s crazy that after the mod purge you’re just now realizing they can do that.
everyone who would care was purged years ago.
