  5. We are not YPTB. If you have a problem with the way an instance or community is run, then take it up over at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

Context

Reddit is purging NSFW subs as well as trans-related subreddits

And a screenshot of the post on Reddit, from which the meme is quoting:

Brace for Rexxit 2.0. This is not drill! Granted, most of the Redfugees will be going to Lemmynsfw (I helped by dropping a link in, we'll see if that lasts) but as long as we get them out... I suppose you could call it missionary position work.

Hopefully LemmyNSFW and Blahaj can handle the additional traffic. Reddit's loss, our gain.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 43 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hope users know that Lemmy exists. Reddit suppresses discussion of alternatives and usually bans links. Word-of-mouth is slower but it will get there eventually.

Reddit suppresses discussion of alternatives and usually bans links.

It can vary. lemmy.world and join-lemmy links are often removed, to the point I think some subs flag them automatically. Links to other instances see solid. I just checked and I have made a dozen posts on Reddit with links to Lemmy in the last day and they are all still up. I will push my luck too far soon though, I'm sure.

Actually, reddit is not coming. That's kinda the whole problem outlined above.

Brilliant! Deserves its own thread here.

It feels like the porn bans may be misdirection - it's the quiet shanking during the prison riot you have to keep an eye out for:

First they came for r/Discuit...

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait a sec, I thought Discuit had been banned for a while now? I remember discussing it with a Discuit member on /r/RedditAlternatives

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing ~~the world~~ online platforms ~~he didn't exist~~ they didn't need nsfw content

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That pussy is out of the sack and can't be stuffed back in.

“Missionary position work” is brilliant, btw.

what's a reddit? is this like myspace?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 16 points 1 year ago

It's like a digg.

[–] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I wondered where some of my favourite Reddits had gone. Luckily they returned, now I can get back to discussing and sharing serious topics with other people online in a civilised manner.

Looks around cautiously

unzips 🤣

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Im probably going to regret this but what is r/rule34?

[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If it exists, there is porn of it. If there isn't, there will be.

[–] Maestro@fedia.io 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That second half is rule 35 actually

I accidentally created a subgenre of porn in a similar way, although drink and drugs may have also been involved.

Or you can Google Image search it.

Was a glitch according to an admin. They are restoring the subs.

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 year ago

Yeah.... "A glitch".

Most likely a test run to see how significant the response would be, and an indicator of where things are going.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

Olympus Hasn't Fallen! This was indeed a drill. However, we learn with every drill.

[–] Guamer@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks like as of a few minutes ago the bans are being undone?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago

Rule34 is back.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Does anyone wank to threats to US president? or is that too pervy for interwebs?

Olympus? Babylon, at best.
