Not sure if this is at the mod or admin level, but that seems a bit concerning

    It’s not exactly a big surprise. I suspect it is on a Mod level as we’ve both posted long lists of links to instances elsewhere and had no problems, so I doubt there is a not scanning for us.

      To be fair, my post is still up: https://old.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1j0xkqa/lemmy_as_an_alternative_to_reddit_using/

    Free speech is a threat to profit. Hence all the for profit platforms lacking it meaningfully.

    Imagine using Reddit while talking about sourcing from non-US countries. It’s a contradiction of itself

    I think it would be goot to promote the Go European firefox extension. It doesn’t have reddit alternative in there yet, so that should be added, but it would be a way to get around the censorship.

      Indeed, I posted about it earlier today: https://fedia.io/m/buyeuropean@feddit.uk/t/1864539/The-Go-European-extension-is-finally-on-Chrome-And-V1-5#comments

      The dev told me he was going to join Lemmy in the coming days, let’s see

    Reddit tries to shield itself by saying that Lemmy links are spam. In part I got here because I got curious on why they were so insistent on removing the links to an almost unknown place (that was my impression back in the day, now I don’t know how it is perceived from outside).
