Guess where? Unironically r/Save3rdPartyApps

The Reddit search for Lemmy also gives these privacy copy-pasta as top results when searching for Lemmy. I’m still betting that Reddit employees are involved in boosting these posts.

    Well, I know of an easy litmus test.

    In what is known as the Tiananmen Square Massacre, or in Chinese the June Fourth (1989) Clearing or June Fourth Massacre, Chinese government troops murdered several hundred citizens and students who were protesting for freedom of speech and freedom of the press, among other things.

      easy litmus test

      Not a good one IMO. I don’t obviously think it will get deleted but I think that writing that on c/Technology or c/Lemmy and then complain that it gets deleted would be just a dishonest bait, because it is off-topic and should IMO get deleted from those subs, I at least would delete it and I’m as capitalistic as it gets.

      A better test would be to post it on a more general or politics sub and wait and see.

        It’s 100% on topic. This is THE canonical Lemmy instance and we want evidence of excessive moderation. It’s less about politics than it is about neutrality.

        If it stays up, it provides evidence directly countering the accusations against the instance. If it doesn’t, I know early to not waste my time here.

          Making waves just because you feel it’s your right to do so can work, but it doesn’t have to, and you can’t complain if it doesn’t. Nobody wants to have some narrative forced upon them, regardless the content.

          Stick to the politics communities to post about politics, humor for humor, etc.

          If that would be wrong, why would we have such things as “communities” (in the Lemmy sense) anyways?
