Remember during next pride month, when they change their X picture on western accounts, that at the end of the day most companies will kill without discrimination for a fiver.

they're also targeting those with anti Fascist opinions and eliminating them from the site. by reporting them for hate speech and anti anything they can come up with. both the Mods and admins seem more than willing to help.

Kinky people are still going to be kinky even if they can't post about it on Reddit. Here's to hoping lemmyNSFW gets some of those "niche subs". ;-)

Does that mean we're going to get an influx of people from those communities on lemmy? They're welcome. Especially if they post in both...

But in all seriousness, yes it's politically motivated.

They'll reverse the X ban any second now.

Reddit, Meta, Twitter, the list goes on.... if you're still using the services provided by the nazis in any capacity, you are perpetuating the continued relevance and power of a nazi machine. The end.

You need it to stay in touch with friends and family? Bullshit. These apps have been around for 10-20 years, friends and families have been around for hundreds of thousands of years. You just like the convenience.

You need it to stay informed? Bullshit. The info is out there and easy to find, don't be so lazy that you need to be spoonfed information by the same 3 bookmarks in your browser. They're deciding for you what you can and can't read about, and spoon feeding you propaganda as well.

If you are a truly principled person that sees all this for what it is, you will disconnect yourself from these things and encourage everyone you care about to do the same any time it comes up.

Otherwise you're just making excuses and assisting our decline.

Good, honestly. Let them scatter to other platforms. Reddit needs to shut down.

Good. Let's have people come here.

Now they say it was a bug? How that works?

I’d stopped using the platform a while ago and went full Lemmy, but this was the push I needed to delete that shit out of my life. Just need to figure out Google and Apple next, they’ve got me by the balls with those services!

This is the opportunity the Fediverse was waiting for.

Ah the tumblr guide for how to kill your community.

Jokes aside that's very sad and very worrying.

Yeah a lot of banned nsfw subs today at /r/BannedSubs. People are saying it's because next week Reddit is gonna announce their Q4 earnings and want to attract more investors and advertisers to their "cleaner" site. Lame-ass puritans, I'd say.

edit: Looks like the bans have been reversed. A reddit admin claimed it was "a bug". Bruh, what kind of bug would only affect veeeery specific nsfw and political subreddits lmao.

Anyone who didn't see this coming a mile away hasn't been paying attention.

Let's go recommend Lemmy to them!!!

People were predicting this a while back as a way that reddit would make themselves more "advertiser-friendly".

I also wonder if there were some legal concerns in those states that now require porn sites to check IDs.

Certainly expected. It was my last social media (apart from Bluesky). I can't endorse this as a trans man. Time to be more active on Lemmy and purge my Reddit account.
