Yesterday, within about ten minutes of Bibic-Jr's Superstonk ban, I also received a ban notification from the Superstonk subreddit team.
The linked comment cited in the ban was on the beyond_uranus subreddit, a sub which does not discuss the same topics as Superstonk and a comment which did not mention or link Superstonk. The topic was regarding the sub owner advertising their own Lemmy community, which is also on this instance.
I'm also sharing my response to the mod team from about 24 hours ago - there has not been any reply from them yet. If I do get one I can share it here in a comment.
This offer stands for all GME and market reform communities who are looking to move away from Reddit as a platform and engage elsewhere. Reddit has become steadily more censorious with time, and the API changes and pending IPO make me skeptical that it is a proper long term solution for assembly.
Lemmy, by comparison, is open source / transparently moderated / communicates with other fediverse apps / free / is without influence of a for profit company / is without influence from advertisers.
I'm very glad this platform exists.
You're viewing a single thread.
Talking about lemmy in other subs about other stocks is perceived as dangerous to the superstonk community? I have no idea why they see it that way.
I’m not up on the Reddit drama, so I don’t know where that mod team falls anymore, but I kind of hope whoever made those bans is trying to meta-game the Streisand effect to boost Lemmy.
The alternative (and apparent) explanation is that someone is really that dumb. It makes me sad to entertain that line of thought.
They are trying very very hard to keep everything quarantined to superstonk. If that group migrated to the fediverse where it couldn’t be suppressed.. woah nelly
I have a theory, and it involves the superstonk moderators getting compensated by third parties to suppress legitimate conversation.
It doesn't effect them at all, therefore it's extremely dangerous...
