In the months since I deleted my Reddit accounts and joined Lemmy, the lack of user base growth has made it clear that we need some users to stay on Reddit as a means of shepherding more users over on an ongoing basis. Otherwise, Reddit simply got what it wanted: less users who make a fuss about how it manages its platform without losing users en-masse.
In doing so, however, does Reddit shadowban posts that mention or promote Lemmy? Googling mentions of Lemmy on Reddit mostly brings up posts from around the time of the blackout, suggesting that mentions of it since then have been suppressed. Before I return to Reddit to promote Lemmy, does anyone know for certain one way or the other?
ah yes, all those successful and well respected businesses selling V1agra, this is the model we should all look up to
Businesses generally shouldnt be „respected“. People should. Companies use all kinds of trickery (bots for example) to make their platforms successful. Youtube started as a copyright infringement platform, until they pulled the ladder up after them.
I‘m not talking about v1agra. I‘m talking about getting your hands dirty if you want to get work done.
Not like I would know, having built quite a couple companies.
