My only content on reddit nowadays is pretty much only posting about lemmy and the link join-lemmy.org, to drive attention to lemmy.

I have noticed that my lemmy comments are removed. This happens on several accounts.

Can some of you please try, and let me know if your post is also removed?

That would be hilarious. Fuck them.

    Yes, reddit has a lot of stuff to censor or shadowban people. It’s been happening for years.

    Can some of you please try

    No, you should have stopped using that dump years ago.

      To be fair advertising Lemmy/Piefed is one of the few good uses of reddit

    When I still had an account, the links that were fully spelled received little or no views.

    When I would break them with spaces, join-lemmy. org or even the “L e m m y”, they would then be seen and upvoted.

    They seem inconsistent about it, because one can easily find posts about lemmy on reddit. But people have periodically reported this. It is possible that lemmy posts are triggering their generic spam filters.

      It depends. I got perma-banned from one particular sub for scrubbing all my old posts with an info blurb about the fediverse back when reddit nuked all 3rd-party APIs. Mods accused me to trying to “steal users” – as if people can’t have logins to reddit and other websites… sheesh.

      None of the other subs I cleaned my post/comment history in this way banned me however. But I am certain Spez and his minions/investors (fuck /u/spez) doesn’t want people to start using alternatives.

    My approach is to stay on both platforms, make a good-faith effort towards both, and work in Fediverse links, when possible.

    Seems to fly pretty well under the Radar O’Reilly…

      Then it might be because I have posted that link several times. Interestingly, my other comments are not removed, only the comments with the link.

      Oh well. I will find some other way to remove some money from reddit’s wallets. Bunch of pedophile protectors.
