    So… Just change account names and start promoting mbin. It’s a different word and the word search band can’t find it. Don’t say ‘fediverse’ - say ‘federated servers’ too to avoid that one.

      I was still giving the mods the benefit of the doubts.

    It would be a shame if somebody posted weekly reminders.

      The mods might consider that “excessive promotion”, they’ve already given @buyeuropean@feddit.org a warning when he posted https://buy-european.net/en, probably because it “competes” with their own website

        The moment it becomes a competition, everyone lost. We should be cooperating. If they are saying it’s competition, they are trying to gain something from it and should be avoided.

    No wonder. Reddit is very censored and allows no competition.

      Not sure if it’s the mods or Reddit. I used to link to it quite a lot, so maybe that raised an alert to the admins

        It must mean it’s making a difference, to the point where someone is trying to censor it.

          Reddit has the real numbers about human active users.

          At this point they must notice a drop due to all the automated bans, and must fear thar people will notice too and look for an alternative

            Linking to another Reddit post or comment is a single point of failure. Link to an external site/blog, and maybe use url shorteners if direct links get auto-modded. Linking to Lemmy directly will probably get auto-modded too.

            Remember, Reddit is a part of the fascist propaganda machine, so don’t expect too much.

              I am well aware, but the Reddit posts had a lot of upvotes and positive comments, so it appeared more trustful to Reddit users potentially interested in joining Lemmy.

              If you have a blog, feel free to host that post over there, I would then link to it.
