I sometimes use Reddit as a search engine to solve various problems, where there is a chance to find something, but if you want to publish something, then the pain begins, posts are blocked by some kind of filter. I know this is done to protect against spam, but as a newcomer to this social network, I don’t understand how to solve this. It’s like you have to be chosen, do everything by their rules, and even write to some moderator personally about this problem. This social network has long since ceased to respect freedom of speech, just like 4chan, where the same thing happens. That’s why I was looking for alternatives and came across Lemmy, which respects freedom of speech and has different servers with their own rules, which is very cool, but I would really like as many people as possible to know about it.


I was booted due to the massive purge
And even I, a card-carrying Luddite managed to make a profile, and keep posting on the same places I always did, using the same redgifs account
I got swept up by the dumb AI purge
Not because I was posting shit that would make one moan about “being censored”
I’ve seen an unfortunate number of ugly, ignorant cunts trying to turn lemmy into the next safe space for incel, conservative, hateful bullshit
