Why is Reddit banning subreddits about Luigi Mangione?
On Reddit, true crime subs pop up after every big story.
I don't understand their absolute ban on posting the manifesto, or the desperation to silence users speculation, or suspending Luigi's user account even though he has not been proven guilty of anything. What's going on over there?
Fuck Reddit.
They’re getting paid to sink it.
Very wealthy people want it sunk and the site likes money.
Maybe not explicitly, but that's the expectation when you're a platform that depends on advertising. Must be a "safe space" for advertisers.
“Fuck Reddit” is why I’m here, bud. Going to be harder for corpos to control a federated internet. Stop going there and giving them KPIs.
and here we are with Lemmy.world blocking Luigi memes.
That's the beauty of federation though. Can just not be on Lemmy.world if you disagree with the moderation of that instance
There will always be instances that are harsher than reddit even
But int this instance on lemmyworld?
They’re capitalists beholden to their shareholders…
…also they’re probably a little afraid of the class war brewing…
Ironically what they are doing will just make it worse for them
Luigi haunts spez’s dreams.
Spez fears he'd get Luigi'd
Reddit's app is anti-libre software. We do not control it. It fails to include a libre software license text file, like GPL.
Reddit's website hides anti-libre software in our web browsers. We do not control it. It fails to include a libre software license text file, like GPL.
These are forced to connect back to Reddit's devices, not to our own and not directly to each other. We are banned from fixing this: we do not control it, anti-libre software.
When we are lazy and gullable, we get scammed like this.
