I wish we could tell whether it was the admins or subreddit moderators using these silencing tactics.
I suppose Discord, GitHub, Steam Forums and YouTube would be better places to bring up the topic.
Lemmy has 462k users and 45k MAU, we could use a bit more content and support for our developers and instance maintainers.
we could use a bit more content
im surprised noone created reddit community scraper that automatically scrapes whatever subreddits and reposts to lemme
There is https://lemmit.online/, the issue is that most of the people block this bot as it blindly mirrors from Reddit, including the reposts and karma farming posts
Is the moderating team for sure. The mods of r/Brasil are also the admins of my lemmy instance and you can find pinned comments promoting lemmy on the subreddit.
I have blocked /u/safebot, lu/saferbot and /u/safestbot to avoid that problem of being banned on certain subreddits for the arbitrary reason such as posting in the “wrong place”.
