    I‘ve just left Reddit to join Lemmy. It did not hurt.

    I’m sure spaz has bots rolling over the site like a roomba, to clean up mentions of Lemmy.

    There’s nothing removed though? I’m seeing the post and all comments. And it’s a low effort meme in a subreddit for discussions on how to buy local instead of US products, so I’d agree with a mod if they did remove it.

      The top comment was about creating a forum to ditch Reddit, seems quite relevant for the sub

        It seems to only be “blocked” or something on the new front-end. Old reddit seems fine. Very weird.

          They forgot to enshittify the old UI. Sometimes there’s a silver lining when companies forget about some features.

          Yeah, I can see the whole thread using Stealth.

          Lots of updoots for the person saying Lemmy “is just terrible”. They seem like an idiot but they’re getting traction.

          It was always like this. What’s even more fun is that if a mod deletes your own comment you still see it which enables things like localised shadowbans via AutoMod.

      you know whats stupid? that you can’t find this post on reddit.com, it even isn’t listed anymore but the direct link to it works O.o?

      So its just shadow-removed? The heck is going on over there?

        Yes, the post got removed, you won’t see it in the feed, but only using the direct link.

        It’s not shadow removed, it’s clearly removed

          but when it would be removed, then the entire thread would be just not there; and I shouldn’t be able to upvote or even comment in it?

            Inconsistency between old,reddit and reddit, see the other comment with the screenshot

              They might even be additional database resources on reddit, which they didn’t bother to implement into old.reddit.

              It all depends on how reddit was coded from the beginning, how they prepared everything for expansion and lastly how they ended up implementing all the things that were added to the codebase over the years.

              This inconsistency is a little indicator of a codebase i would be happy to never have to lay my eyes upon.

                This makes me think of websites like Walgreens mobile site where it loads the old design first then updates to the new design lol.

    You picked and chose the reason that made you angry, but they also mention repeated posts, which is probably the reason why it got removed if there are other posts about Lemmy…

    But it didn’t get removed, did it? It’s just a mod comment that’s there are a warning.

    It’s also just a meme and not something that actively contributes to the movement.

    Platforms should not carry advertise for their competitors so this is fair. This should be an official policy though, not a random removal.

    I don’t understand why restaurants allow ads for competing restaurants while I’m eating. (they probably don’t have a choice, but if I was an owner that would be a reason to remove the screens) Transit operators should not have ads for cars. reddit should not have ads for lemmy.

      That’s anti-competitive monopolistic behavior, not normal. You shouldn’t expect me to eat every meal at your restaurant.

      If your food sucks so much that you have to hide the existence of other restaurants… maybe improve your food to retain customers.
