MODERATORS
 

I noticed that some of the mods here are also the mods of r/experienceddevs. That subreddit is quite active. Perhaps it would be effective to have automoderator throw a sticky on every post there, just saying welcome to r/ExperiencedDevs, please follow the rules, etc and at the bottom: Did you know we have a Lemmy community? With a link here.

@[email protected] what do you think of this idea?

Last I checked, all Lemmy links and any mention of lemmy is censored site-wide on Reddit. They going to be particularly defensive about it until they do their IPO too.

r/Android has their Lemmy link in their sidebar, and they're one of the most successful Reddit->Lemmy transitions we've seen so far

That is absolutely not the case. I have posted many links to lemmy there. The only thing I still do on Reddit is discussion related to Lemmy and fediverser, there is nothing being blocked and I afaict am not being blocked.

I must be imagining my shadowban then.

You being shadowbanned and a site-wide censorship of links to Lemmy are two distinct things.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Obvioulsly. See how long you last sending Lemmy links before they shadowban you too.

Leave it to a person on here to argue semantics. They pretty much accomplish the same thing.

Step 1: Wait until a user sends a Lemmy link.
Step 2: Shadow ban them.

Same effect as site wide censorship with the added illusion of fairness for the disingenuous bootlickers.

I've been doing for months already and have not been banned/shadowbanned.

PS: please stop with the stalking. You have been downvoting every comment and post of mine for the past days, even when not involved in the conversation. If you continue with this, you will be reported and perhaps you will understand that is not the Lemmy-linking that getting you banned from reddit, but just your obnoxious behavior.

Haha. I downvoted like 10 of your comments which I disagreed with. Cry me a river.

The conversations here might be different and deeper, with the many Linux fans here.

Of course. People that left and came here because of the API stuff are (IMO) inherently smarter people with a predisposition toward FOSS technologies.
