Warning: Elon Musk now has Huffman bending the knee. Whitepeopletwitter, iselondeadyet and loads of other Elon critical subs have been banned or suspended.
Just a warning, Reddit is no longer a safe place for free speech, it is compromised.
100% done with reddit, the place is now propaganda central and censorship is out of control.
I’m not even remotely surprised. Anybody who has been following the history of Reddit will know that their senior management are spineless and will change their stance at a whim when it either hurts their public image or it no longer becomes viable from a business perspective.
We’re forgetting that this is the same site that allowed jailbait, creepshots, racial hatred, right wing propaganda, rampant misogyny, gore videos, terrorist propaganda (if anyone remembers ISIL) and other disgusting content to proliferate until various scandals forced their hand. Spez in particular is a massive snake that will throw people under the bus and lie through his teeth if it benefits him.
But then again, with a government as volatile as this, maybe you don’t want to piss of Trump or Musk…
I’m gonna have to check on fuckcara and cyberstuck
Well, there are many reasons why the CCP put 150M in Reddit in 2019…
Sorry to post a reddit thread, but supposedly this was because of death threats to Elon bootlickers. https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/1ihq6ht/whats_going_on_with_whitepeopletwitter_that_got/
Which is ironic because Elon notoriously promoted project veritas literally catfishing his own employees at Twitter, and also brought back accounts like libsoftiktok that existed to target private individuals. But to be fair to Spez, maybe he would ban those things too.
But to be fair to Spez, maybe he would ban those things too.
The only consistent rule for the past decade or so at reddit has been “don’t sass the nazis.”
Spez lied about a phone call with one of the third party app devs back in 2023. He’s not fair with us, don’t be fair with him.

Lol.
Lmao even.
Reddit has never been a safe place for free speech.
yes it has, but it was like 15 years ago and absolutely wild
Try 18 years ago, when Aaron Swartz left.
where does the time go
The time didn’t go anywhere, we did.
How do people not expect this of Reddit by now
Reddit has been Facebook since like 2019-2020. Any social media service that gets too big just becomes a complete shit hole, hence my joining the fediverse.
The resistance will be federated.
Fuck…ppl still use that dumb pigs trash site? Huffman can do one. 🖕
I finally made the jump to here today. I have no idea what federated means but I had have it with Reddit. It’s all bots and reposts.
There is a bunch of different servers and anyone can start their own server if they want to.
Server admins can decide with which servers they exchange information or which they block.
So if one server goes down or the admins there go rogue powertripping, the rest can remain unaffected.
For the most part your user experience is pretty much the same like on reddit, with a better culture here. But if something really rubs you the wrong way, you can switch your home server, or make your own instead of only being able to leave.
Just checking: John Brown did nothing wrong, slave owners should be killed.
Only good Nazi is a dead Nazi, those who disagree will be shot in the right leg. The exception being those who think a good Nazi is one they want to torture for fun.
No? You can’t just call for people’s death and leak their info. It’s actually illegal, that’s why they got temp banned.
You can do it on twitter.
since when has distributing publicly available information (where Elon currently is located) been illegal?
We cant just vote and protest. We have to kill a few of them or they will just laugh. All our right were won in blood and if we arent willing to kill them when they try to step out of line, we will be left with nothing.
The right has been doing this for like a decade now.
Fuck spez
Reddit was on its way out a couple years ago. i got banned for life for asking a question about violence. Eefff them.
Keep sitting on your hands and it will all just go away /s
Here from reddit also. Guilty of leveling criticism against the dominant culture in my state. If you want to be my friend please reach out 🙏
Welcome!
Make sure to try the All section too find new communities! You can block instances or communities you don’t like to moderate your own feed, it’s a lot less algorithmic than reddit is these days. Hot is what Reddit used to sort by.
