Musk 'Pressured' Reddit CEO to Silence DOGE Critics, Leaving Moderators Outraged: Report.

They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours
It looks like this is the ex-redditor handshake thread. Did anyone start here without coming from Reddit? I heard about Lemme during the IPO fallout but didn’t pursue it until the mass shadow ban rollout.
I’m also still jumping back and forth, but that’s only because the big content creators for hobby stuff are still on Reddit. Once they migrate, I’ll likely delete my account.

Oh good job Musk! Bring them all here! Right into our icy flippers!
Flippers because we're penguins because we love Linux?
We're not going to live down that time we held a guy at gunpoint in Grand Theft Auto to help him consider switching to Linux, are we?

I got banned from reddit for saying that netenyahu should be put on trial and hanged for war crimes.
After their censorship of me for saying a reasonable thing (a war criminal made to face justice) I will say I have altered my opinion. He should be tied up, simply read his charges and then unceremoniously shot in the head.
I was banned for saying traitors to our nation should be publicly executed. Which is our actual law. So that’s confusing

This happened to me like 10 times so I came here.
I’m sure this wasn’t designed as an exodus of critical thinkers
Welcome!
In case you're very new, I should mention something about this place...
We have the best Star Trek memes, here...
Well, the most anyway...
Okay not the most...
But our devotion to Star Trek memes is both adorable and worrying.

Ah...ah...ah....ach-<no one should be allowed to bomb hospitals>-choo!

What I find ironic about this whole situation is that the conservatives had a major uproar after they discovered that the Biden administration told Meta/Facebook to censor COVID misinformation. But now that it’s them telling social media platforms to censor content critical of Musk and DOGE? Complete and utter silence. Free speech my ass.

Because at least in America, we're all just temporarily embarrassed billionaires. We've had a lifetime of brainwashing and conditioning to act against our own self interest.
Don't worry, I'll fix it all with my unchecked political influence once I earn my first billion.
(This is sarcasm.)

Wow now I feel justified for leaving and feel like I should do another post where I tell people to follow us here
They mostly ban our accounts when we do, but I don't mind. I like to tell people when the party has moved, if they seem cool.

Now we just need to make more Lemmy posts that aren't about them.
Would you settle for a meme about a character from Star Trek installing Linux on something?
I kid. We're growing. But I agree, we could spend less energy on then.

Similar final straw for me.
I had wrote an anti putin thing under a post of Selenskyj where he stated putin will soon die, I confirmed that I hope so too and got like 400 upvotes and a hour or two later got deleted and a 3 day ban.
I'm surprised that the loss of 3rd party apps almost 2 years ago wasn't the final straw for y'all, but either way I'm glad you finally made it here.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that just about everyone on Lemmy originally came from reddit.

I turn 40 on 4-20. We’re old now homie

Same. I had JUST said to someone last night that I'd never been banned or even warned, though I'd said plenty stuff on the violently anti fascist end of things. A few hours later, I get a warning, though they didn't say for which comment. Thankfully, someone told me about her!

It's hard for the subreddits that barely have any traction as is. But it's entirely feasible for most of them. Is there a way on lemmy to have small communities new post always come up on the top of your feed?

Choosing "all/new" gets the job done.
And many Lemmy clients have more options with additional cleverness to get a feed with a mix of fresh and familiar.
It's worth pointing out (to communities thinking about moving) that there's nothing algorithmically suppressing new content here.
Getting (and staying) noticed is way easier, here.

I’m here now cuz of this article
Welcome!
Let's see, what useful welcomes advice can I share...?
- You'll find lots of Linux users here, but we're harmless.
- I'm not sure our interpretation of Star Trek's
Gowronhas any remaining relationship with the original character, but I guess he's one of our mascots, now. - If one of us starts to go on about how federation works, it's okay to nod and back away slowly. Federation works just fine without understanding it.

I hate my conspiricy theory minded family but if someone told me they had proof Musk expressly bought Twitter to get right wing power in America and used the buyer's remorse stock price manipulation attempt gone south as a cover story?
I'd believe it.
- He's dumber than you give him credit for
- What is the point of the supposed cover story? To cover from who, about what? He's literally paying people to vote, again. Next to that, buying a social media to influence it almost sounds democratic.
The reason that conspiracy theory is appealing is the same for all conspiracy theories; it's more comforting to think the powerful have a clever masterful evil plan than the sad reality that we're all making it up as we go, even the literal Nazis.
