I found out about it because of a hacker news comment discussing the Reddit drama. I’m pretty upset that I didn’t discover it on Reddit. I assume any mention of Lemmy was marked as spam or was I just not browsing the right communities?

    I actually knew about it for some years when investigating fediverse software.

    I saw it on hacker news and wanted to check it out as I intended to delete my Reddit account but wanted a new home where I could get my info fix. I came, I saw, I deleted my Reddit account and here I am :)

    Reddit has been banning/deleting comments and subreddits dedicated to Lemmy or Kbin—unless someone notices, then they un-delete or un-ban

    Found it after a random comment on reddit mentioned it. Been doing the same at least once a day, trying to slip under the radar and have gotten replies on it too, so at least I’m not shadowbanned (yet) it seems.

    Came across a reference to it on Reddit. I didn’t do anything at the time, but when I came across two or three more references to it just before the blackout I thought I’d give it a try.

    Came here after leaving Reddit and looking for alternatives. Happy to be here and I’m never going back.
