A community to organize and discuss the growth of the fediverse as a whole
EDIT: @mindbleach@sh.itjust.works shared something that might help to circumvent this shit:
Contained in these parentheses is a zero-width joiner: ()
Basically, add those to whatever you feel that might be filtered out, then remove the parentheses. The content inside the parentheses is invisible, but it screws with regex rules.
What's a reddit?
Oh, yea, that dumpster fire I walked away from 2 years ago. It still exists?
What the fuck is a Reddit?

Perhaps using this picture instead of writing the link in plain text will help prevent the Reddit bots from detecting that one is recommending Lemmy there:
if that's the captcha to get in... i'm out.
Oh, no, I should have explained! That's something to help post the link hopefully without the Reddit bots detecting it. I've edited the post.
I moderate r/spezholedesign and have set up AutoModerator to promote Lemmy on all posts. I have made a post directly linking to lemmy.world and nothing has happened. I've never gotten shadowbanned or suspended
We need to figure out a way to recruit with to out outright posting it there.
It’s just bots enforcing this, images should work.
probably worth a try but I have to imagine reddit's algorithms can read the text in images
Im sure there’d be a huge market for Lemmy if you just told people “do you want Reddit without ads or conservatives?”
That's not a shadowban, that's a straight up suspension.
A shadowban is just when your posts and comments are filtered and hidden from others.
Got shadow banned years ago for sharing the link to the εxodus privacy analysis of the Reddit app. There is a reason why they keep trying to pressure their users to use their app. It's farming their personal data.
You can't save them. Whoever is willing and mentally agile enough to look for alternatives will find us. Honestly, at this point, I'd be glad if especially the folks commenting on Reddit's mainstream subs did not join Lemmy and capture it with their boring, antiquated, views and extremely repetitive quips.
That's interesting. I haven't been banned for mentioning r/RedditAlternatives yet. I'm honestly shocked that sub still exists.
Fuck Reddit, they banned me because I reported discrimination and it was easier to get rid of the whiner than do their jobs.
Now I can't talk nerdshit about The Sims anymore
Get the sims community started on Lemmy. Try to convince some people to join
Where Is the shadow part of the ban?
left side: logged in. exists.
right side: private window, not logged in. does not exist.
Interesting trick I should save for future use.
A shadow ban is where they didn't tell you that you were banned. A shadow banned user could go for years commenting and posting and never realised they were banned. It's only if they check their posts while logged out that they realise.
I'd imagine in that particular case it felt like spam. If someone came through here and was named Nick_From_Nike and only posted in threads related to Nike and only positively about Nike, I feel like many would quirk a brow.
Are we seeing shadowbans with established accounts that don't have lemmy in their username? Considering r/redditalternatives is still going strong, seems unlikely.
Contained in these parentheses is a zero-width joiner: ()
Three-ish years ago, my comments kept getting eaten by shitty regexes, and I threw my hands up and started placing that after every fucking vowel. It worked everywhere except the few subs so pants-on-head stupid that they had a secret maximum comment length. I just. I don't. Fuck some moderators, y'know? Some people cannot be trusted with the tiniest bit of power. Misery multipliers.
Related unicode shenanigans: inhibit symmetric swapping, pop directional isolate, zero width non-joiner, zero width space. I have more I'll keep in reserve.
Try lem my dot (world/ee/ect...) make it look strange but people will get it.
