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

Reddit is scared. Good job getting the screenshot.

Gotta be. It was right after I made the edit.

actually I think it was mander.xyz for some reason? and it doesn't seem to happen in r/fediverse

no wait, something else is also doing it, midwest.social is also doing it, lemmy.world is clear, infosec.pub is clear, ttrpg.network is not allowed

no idea how Reddit or r/technology chose which instances to ban lol

Knowing reddit moderators, they probably just encountered someone from those instances that disagreed with them that one time.

A word block-list isnt that rare

[–] spaduf@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago

Wild. Do we know if there's anything else on the list.

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.
