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.
Your posts are not blocked by some type of filter. You have to have enough upvotes to post in mot Reddit subs or the sub moderator has to approve of your post.

It is NOT like that. It IS that way.

Reddit like a private entity has no obligation to respect your freedom of speech or provide you an avenue to practice your free speech.
I often find that while reddit is shit, those bitching about censorship or freedom of speech are the type of conservative, bigoted cunt, who I would happily punch in the mouth
Yep. That said, Reddit truly is impossible to join these last few years.
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
I sometimes use Reddit
There’s your problem.
Obligatory fuck Spez
That’s easy to say, but the truth is there’s nothing like the knowledge base Reddit has when it comes to niche topics.

hashad.FTFY.
After the multiple waves of people deleting their accounts/posts, and the increase of bots, it’s less and less useful.
We get it, Reddit bad.
The solution is to leave Reddit
I don’t find this infuriating at all. Who cares what happens on reddit?
Well, dont know what to say. Bring the content here.
On old.reddit too?
