This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Shadow banned for making a very popular post about how to make DIY Luigi Mangione prayer candles using dollar tree candles, printer and a glue stick on witches vs patriarchy
ha! that sounds like an amazing post!
I got a lifetime IP ban on Reddit for saying "Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell" - so fuck Reddit, fuck DOGE, and especially fuck Elon.
Hmm, sounds like your freedom of speech was suppressed, at least according to the standard Elon espouses. I wonder why he now feels so strongly about doing the opposite thing from what he wanted before. 🤔
I am jumping back and forth as well for now…. My first posts here! Thanks to whomever got this going !
I love Reddit so much, but the censorship is bullshit! I quit the entire META platform months ago, lost a lot of contacts but fuck Zuckerberg!
What I find ironic about this whole situation is that the conservatives had a major uproar after they discovered that the Biden administration told Meta/Facebook to censor COVID misinformation. But now that it’s them telling social media platforms to censor content critical of Musk and DOGE? Complete and utter silence. Free speech my ass. Source
It looks like this is the ex-redditor handshake thread. Did anyone start here without coming from Reddit? I heard about Lemme during the IPO fallout but didn’t pursue it until the mass shadow ban rollout.
I’m also still jumping back and forth, but that’s only because the big content creators for hobby stuff are still on Reddit. Once they migrate, I’ll likely delete my account.
I'm here because I got shadowbannned for some unspecified reason.
Mass edit your comments while you still can. I got halfway through my history before being blocked.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that just about everyone on Lemmy originally came from reddit.
Yeah, I'd deleted my Reddit posts and then my account in November. I was already irked at what they did to their API, and then the Orange Dingbat got elected and I decided it was enough.
Later on, I went back, but only to lurk, but since many of the specialised subs require that you join in able to read posts makes it pretty unusable at this point.
I miss the old Reddit; I was there for over a decade. But here we are, building a new place for ourselves.
Almost like the sites need the users more than the users need the sites.
