So what we expected finally happened.

Reddit quarantined (and might soon ban) the most active communist subreddit, and one of the very few non-western-supremacist ones left.

We’ve gotten dozens of new applications, and are approving them as quickly as we can.

Here are a few Lemmy mobile apps for Android and iOS, if you prefer using those over the web app.

If you have any questions, or if there’s anything we can help with, new ideas or communities, or anything that can make the transition away from stormfront easier, let us on the mod team know.

Reddit, Silicon valley, surveillance capitalism, bourgeois media, down with them!

Another welcome post describing Lemmy.

      My account got an 3 day ban yesterday from reddit itself, i cant even comment or upvote or do anything at all on the sub, of all the moments they could have banned me, they decide to do it on r/GenZedong last moments. My disapointment is imesuarable, and my day is ruined :(

          Yeah my name on reddit was u/Rafaell_Luisi, and i, for the love of marx, beg you to not say Brasil speaks spanish, its very annoying to see gringos confusing us with spanish people lol.

          I hope the developers of this site can put an flair feature here, i loved so much the pun on that flair.

              Yeah its portuguese, i know that it can be confused with spanish because they sound very similar, but trust me they are pretty different. But it doesnt help the fact that portuguese is not an very famous language.
