      That sounds right for the company whose CEO was appointed moderator of r/jailbait. This was before you had to accept an invitation to be moderator, but fuck Spez regardless.

      I left reddit because they kept resisting the removal of subs that directly used the platform to sell CSAM under the guise of a specific niche of porn which normally is legal. Direct contact with reddit to explain why it was CSAM went nowhere.

      Reddit currently has an active and massive beastiality sub. They don’t allow real images, but they have comment threads with discussion and advice. Just as with r/jailbait, people post fishing for the real stuff.

    omg the top comment just got deleted with over 500 upvotes

    I think it was when it was edited to include specific links to Lemmy instances, instead of the join-lemmy.org website

    I still see the comment on Spaduf’s profile, but it shows as deleted in the post

    I think maybe the link to lemmy.world is what triggered their filter? because that was edited in

      Is 500 upvotes that much on reddit?

      On lemmy its huge, but on reddit i have seen posts with twice that in niche subreddits

        For a comment it’s a lot yea, especially since the thread was still pretty new. It was the top comment in that thread by a large margin.

    I would help, but I honestly don’t have the password anymore. I don’t think I signed up with an email, but if I did it was a dummy one. I wish I could help.

    Edit: Also, I didn’t know about this bridge for Mastodon:

    if you want your Mastodon posts to also show on Bluesky then use this bridge https://fed.brid.gy/ you only need to follow the account @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy (note: is this a typo? It is not a typo. It will follow you back and make sure to accept the follow) and it will automatically bridge you

      the bridge is pretty nice, I would recommend everyone on compatible platforms to use it (Bluesky, and probably any AP microblogging platform, but I’ve only tried it with Mastodon)

          yea it should just be a matter of searching your username, but you need to be logged in to search remote instances (they don’t want anonymous requests spamming the network)

          what’s your Pixelfed username? I can pull it up if you want

            Thanks for the info, I’ll give it a go. It’s great that we can link to bluesky but not necessarily be a part of them.

            On another note, don’t you think it’s a little weird that someone from world is saying to not follow small instances? I’m not sure I understand bringing them up in the first place.

              Where is that comment? I didn’t see it. Maybe they’re thinking back when it was really hard to get new communities federated, but it’s not so bad these days, and even the medium sizes instances already have tons of communities already federated.

              anyways I think we should’ve give people too much trouble as long as they’re joining the Fediverse lol, they can move instances as they get a feel for it

                I’ve personally had an issue with a world admin in the past, that’s why I picked up on it. I don’t seem to be having as much issues lately, so maybe they’ve chilled. It’s the advertising part that kind of bugs me for their instance instead of Lemmy in general:

                Really if you’re telling someone about it, you just tell them one of the bigger, better instances. Don’t send them to that “pick a server” thing. I don’t know if I’m allowed to link it here, but the name of the software and the word “world” with a period in between is a fine server for both Lemmy and Mastodon.

                I went from a heavy, daily reddit user to making half a dozen comments here in a year. All my activity is now over there, outside of search results.
