It was just a simple place where people could post their own open source projects.. but apparently Reddit hates Open Source

Welcome to Lemmy. r/Lemmy was banned too lol.

It’s crazy that they can just do that, and nobody cares.

That’s why we are all here, once reddit wanted to monetize the data and increase profit it all turned to shit. Its not a freely open forum anylonger

Yeah it makes sense now. I think the reason for the ban is that they want people to circle jerk on their own platform. So they don’t want links to outside domains, which is what my subreddit did.



If they do care, you probably just don’t see it because of the censorship


The people that care leave or are forced out. Like it or not, Reddit belongs to a company. If they want to make their thing into a pile of junk, that sucks and is a shame, but its theirs to ruin. Feel free not to take the abuse.


it’s crazy that after the mod purge you’re just now realizing they can do that.

everyone who would care was purged years ago.




Welcome! We have open source cookies!


Did they even give a reason?

No, just banned.



Dunno over on Reddit - wasn’t all too interested in open source when I used it. But people here seem overall friendly towards open source. So if I might suggest, also since Reddit doesn’t explain what the violation was so presumption of innocence for you kicks in, maybe remake the subreddit as a community here? Also decentralized governance should help mitigate powertripping management as Reddit is showing in recent years. At worst, you’d have to make the community again on another instance, but I haven’t seen the lemmy.world administration pick a bone with communities in the years I have been around, so should be safe, me thinks.


Welcome, comrade


Yeah, Reddit belongs to an asshole, and thus his private property so he and his bots can kick anyone anytime, without even citing or explaining offenses.

That said, fuck you SPEZ.


cool story… I’m sure nobody here cares about your Reddit nonsese

Yeah, nobody subscribed to the reddit community would care about reddit

Got lost on /all maybe


I had to recheck what sub I was on when I read their comment… Maybe they are a lost Lemming?



Actually I would expect people here to care, but not on Reddit.


And you can just fuck right off. Most people are here because of what Reddit did and you’re on a community called… Reddit.


HEY nonsese is my hobby, I LOVE nonsese, nonsese is essential to my life!

PS:
What the fuck is nonsese?
