This occurred today when I tried updating/deleting old comments via the Redact tool, on the old super-stonk sub.

Guess they’re afraid of losing their captive Apes!

    I’m honestly surprised at the transparency of saying the word in the message

    Lemmy and kbin are in the spam filter for long now and basically put the comment in a shadow removed state and if you mentioned it often enough it’s a account ban/shadowban

      For sure, it’s what got me banned from s-stonk originally last month :) What a crock.

          Well, so far at least, it isn’t applying to r/GMECanada (I’m the mod there) and references to ‘lemmy’ or overt links to this and other fediverse communities aren’t being shadowbanned by reddit admins; just posted there a few hours ago and other users are seeing my post and comments.

          I think superstonk mods themselves are applying these crazy rules to their own sub, specifically, in this case.

    That sub was turned into a quarantine zone basically, anything that would get close to the main page would have an accelerated decay rate, if it showed up at all

      The Superstonk sub. Just the word ‘lemmy’. I tried editing some comments (which already mentioned lemmy, and had links to lemmy instances and communities!) … and the edits resulted in those messages to my inbox.

      They definitely are afraid of hemorrhaging control of their narrative. Unsure when exactly they added a generic filter for this keyword, but the fact the comments were already there, then the edits I did today triggered it, means it happened within the last month.

        It’s a sub for delusional GameStop stock holders (I know because I’m one of them).

        Absolutely nothing there is meant to be taken seriously.
