Or made any kind of commentary on it? Or are they depending on being deathly silent to reduce the chance of anyone finding out?

    I would never have known that Lemmy existed, if it weren’t for redditors telling me about it around the time Spez went nuclear on 3rd party apps. And here I thought that everyone on Lemmy came from reddit.

    FWIW, I’ve heard that they’ve recently been censoring any mentions of Lemmy. They’re obviously afraid of reddit becoming a repeat of digg. Which is why they’ve been slowly enshittifying the place instead of doing all at once like digg did. Fuck reddit, and fuck Spez.

      Reddit doesn’t do that, it’s overzealous moderators that do. Like on /r/technology iirc.

      /r/redditalternatives for example doesn’t get posts that mention Lemmy removed. If Reddit blanket censored the term, it would apply there too.

      Fuck Reddit and fuck spez! Like you said, the second redditors became an ad commodity that site should have died an undignified death.

      Now it’s a place for Nazi sympathizers and boot licks.
