I just got my first Luigi-upvote warning this morning. The best part is the bots don't tell you specifically which post or comment you upvoted to get you auto-flagged, so you have no idea how to navigate the minefield of their automated autoban system, they don't even take the posts down.. they leave them up as some sort of honeypot to flag as many people as possible to ban.

[–] Freefall@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

Oh no, I am sure reddit totally won't just say something like Plumber or Green instead of Luigi, making it impossible to keep auto-censoring.

[–] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 24 points 4 hours ago

We get it. Reddits CEO is a scared little coward.

On reddit Mario Bros will never be the same

Are they censoring ''player two'' ''green Mario'' ''Waluigi'' or xXBIGLOUIEXx ?

[–] SabinStargem@lemmings.world 37 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

Reddit is going heavy on censoring the thought of protest. For example, I suggested throwing rotten fruit, eggs, and using a megaphone to bother JD Vance at his residence. Because, bluntly, 'polite' protest misses the whole bloody point of protest. It is all about making the people in power feel uncomfortable, and to warn them if they keep it up, people will open the 4th box.

I got banned, which will end in three days. But more importantly, it has convinced me: Reddit is controlled by those who don't understand nor value the 1st Amendment, and why it is crucial for preventing the 2nd Amendment from being exercised.

While it sucks to harass people, the alternative if things progress further is much worse.

No one regrets getting banned from nazi digg.

It's a good suggestion however there is currently a police checkpoint surrounding his house so you cant even get to his street.

[–] Guns0rWeD13@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

police need to be put into an uncomfortable choice of who they want to side with

[–] cavtroop@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

you know EXACTLY which side they'll choose...

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

When it grew exponentionally, the regime intervened as they did with Facebook and others.
Long before Trump.
All MSM is controled and social media is no different when it reaches a substancial audience.
The hard truth still many don't want to hear:
Free speech is an illusion, only allowed if you scream into the void.
Anything else they will manipulate or sabotage.
TikTok is the latest example.
You can expect the same here eventually, while the nature of it makes it more difficult the platform will be flooded with bots trying to control the narrative.

The Fediverse is our best chance at resisting our social media being controlled. People need to be made aware of that.

[–] all4theTomatoes@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago

It's pretty crazy. I saw a post on reddit about an article that was talking about the fediverse. I kid you not, 120 comments, 90% of those comments completely bashing it. "iT's bRokEn, iTs bugGy, eW iT loOks likE sOoo oUtdatEd". Literally not even giving it a single chance. I've been on lemmy for about... 3 days now? Absolutely not regretting it.

Twitter: Gone, Reddit: Gone, Facebook: You are NEXT!

[–] patrickS@lemm.ee 8 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

I received a permanent ban on Reddit a week ago for similar/like comments, suggesting something to the effect that the Trump/Musk team was something less than stellar. The Mods did not care to hear that. I wonder why?

[–] Stormy1701@lemmy.zip 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Have Reddit explained why they think simply saying Luigi is inciting violence?

[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Reddit is owned by rich people and they want us docile and not talk about how easy it is to end their reign.

[–] Guns0rWeD13@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

that and teams of lawyers who are always going to recommend 'playing it safe'

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 35 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

All that it’s doing is creating the Streisand effect. Heh.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

more like enshittification effect. i think stresaind only reveals something that is not open to the "public"

[–] HiddenLychee@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Agreed, nothing can turn redditors off of reddit

I got the warning that I’m one move away from being banned from Reddit after they made these rules. It’s definitely gotten very sketchy feeling over there.

Here comes another wave of lemmings!

[–] Dumbitch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

Well bye bye Reddit. It was nice to know ya.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

It was nice to know ya.

Was it?

[–] bigkatze@discuss.online 18 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah this place was just suggested to me by a friend. I like it here so far!

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 21 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

I found this place because someone on Reddit posted this picture.

[–] SneakyBird@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

I don’t think BlueSky is fediverse, just a different Twitter in the end, isn’t it?

[–] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Technically revanced isn't open source, proprietary parts of youtube remains the same

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Yeah I can't vouch for the whole list, but it is how I found this place.

[–] Bristingr@lemm.ee 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Any alternative to Tiktok?

[–] nicerdicer@feddit.org 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Perhaps Loops? I never used Tiktok, but I have been directed to Loops-Videos. It seems to be similar to Tiktok or YouTube Shorts. However, I don't know how it works (if you can just watch videos or if you have to register first).

[–] daddakamabb@lemmy.world 14 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

That's why I'm here now. Seems like a nice place ya got here.

This is absolutely crazy. Luigi is not uncommon italian first name, as well as obviously a game name and a pizza brand. Reddit is rediculous.

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago

Seems like a case could be made for racial/ethnic discrimination. They're setting themselves up for anti-discrimination lawsuits at this rate. We need to round up some Luigis, have them get banned from reddit for mentioning their name, and then sue the pants off them for discriminating against Italians.

I knew the right was regressive. But I never imagined we would go back to "No Italians Need Apply."

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 92 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Imo, this is proof of how scared the corpos are of letting him become a figurehead of the fight against them. I love it.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 24 points 23 hours ago

Exactly. This is a sign of how terrified they are of Luigi. Say his name!!! LUIGI!
