EDIT: @mindbleach@sh.itjust.works shared something that might help to circumvent this shit:
Contained in these parentheses is a zero-width joiner: ()
Basically, add those to whatever you feel that might be filtered out, then remove the parentheses. The content inside the parentheses is invisible, but it screws with regex rules.

What’s a reddit?
Oh, yea, that dumpster fire I walked away from 2 years ago. It still exists?

Make sure to wash your eyes afterwards if you’re using the redesign or app.

That’s at least a good reason to be there!
So what’s up with “not gonna lie”? I’ve been hearing it for over a decade, and I hear it from known liars, people I trust, and all the shades of in-between. This is the first time I’ve seen it on Lemmy.
If someone I trust says it, I trust them less.
If a liar says it, I know they’re about to lie. It’s the “I’m not racist but” of liars.
I worked with a woman for years that said “not gonna lie” roughly 30 times a day. I liked her, I just hated that so I could be biased.
I realize this is completely derailing the post but do you have any insight on this phrase?

OP uses it in a weird way here, usually I see it used to admit something shameful, which you’re more inclined to believe

Perhaps using this picture instead of writing the link in plain text will help prevent the Reddit bots from detecting that one is recommending Lemmy there:
if that’s the captcha to get in… i’m out.
Oh, no, I should have explained! That’s something to help post the link hopefully without the Reddit bots detecting it. I’ve edited the post.
i figured as much. carry on with the good work.
Thanks!

No one regrets getting banned from nazi digg.

all the right wingers that got butthurt from youtube, reddit fled to facebook, because it gives them admin privileges, i had one that fled to fb, and try to bring down a sub by having his incel supports from youtube brigade the sub,(sub is mostly partially unmoderated.) it was a bunch of asian poc youtube channel, what a “disgrace” by siding with someone like that in the whitehouse/
OMG, Nazi Digg. Can I borrow that?
By all means.

I moderate r/spezholedesign and have set up AutoModerator to promote Lemmy on all posts. I have made a post directly linking to lemmy.world and nothing has happened. I’ve never gotten shadowbanned or suspended
deleted by creator
That’s probably the reason. My account is 1y 4m old and has 32K Karma. They don’t ban high karma users that fast since it would sharply reduce the content on the site.
Any suggestions on what I can do with a 12 year old account? I tried using it for the first time in two years to hype local protests.
I am permanently banned from r/politics
High posting karma accounts will get spared. They will axe accounts with comment karma only fairly readily.
they set thier bot/spam filters way much higher than in the past months, in last week people noticed thier accs were getting shadow/ban in large amounts in such sudden and quick succession to.
thats why, it was too new. reddit is very hostile to new accounts, simply thier filters assume people are a potential bot/spammer, if they havnt been on the site that long. thats why people even using some proxies, anti-detect browsers get banned asap. also commenting on a sub, that auto removes your comments, for not having enough “karma or aged account” also flags your account. the question is, is visiting a sub you were previously banned in without commenting, will that also trigger some kind of flag? (i think so), if you notice they already have gone through at least 3 major purges in the last 3 months(of "bots/spammer/evaders) i was on the recieving end of the 3rd one. it was definitely noticable in DEC, as thier were less bots ragebaiting people.
We need to figure out a way to recruit with to out outright posting it there.
deleted by creator
goto twitter subreddits and post memes from mastodon
Minus the “giving reddit more new content” part, this is a great idea
it’s the whole reason “screenshot of a social media post” exists in the first place
and yeah, I sure as shit would never post there again, just putting the idea out there.
youtube
I am far from elitist in most anything I do or say. I try to be inclusive when introducing others to a topic, offer information freely and at any pace they can accept it, and generally enjoy the most mundane parts of life so long as they’re done in a healthy way. I say all of that to preface the fact that I cannot tolerate most users on YouTube. They’re, by and large, just awful.
I do agree with your idea, but it physically hurts me to envision lemmy with YouTube comments.
deleted by creator
Lemmy’s structure encourages better commenting than the drive by, engagement floated style of YouTube.
But you are not wrong either.
The XFCE logo social media site.
It’s just bots enforcing this, images should work.
probably worth a try but I have to imagine reddit’s algorithms can read the text in images
Yea, but that requires considerably more processing than plain text
True, I’m not sure if they ocr every image or not, maybe they don’t
I’d be surprised if it bans comments for images with Lemmy.
I think the bigger problem is how to post without appearing like spam to the human community.
So what I’m hearing is post coded shitposts on Reddit? Got it!
Im sure there’d be a huge market for Lemmy if you just told people “do you want Reddit without ads or conservatives?”
Reddit is overwhelmingly left. Get a grip.
Reddit is overwhelmingly liberal. Which is not left. Read a book.
Removed by mod
Understand the level of nuance where most of the people, in the world, don’t live in the US. And for everywhere but the US, liberal is pretty synonymous with “conservatives that won’t murder the gays or arrest you for smoking weed.”

Or as I like to call them, the “abolish the age of consent” political ideology
Whenever I see someone asking about or speculating that users need somewhere else to go… I direct-message them and give them links to https://feddit.org/search and encourage them to make a login on some instance…
So far it doesn’t seem reddit is snooping on direct messages … yet
Honestly all it took for me was “reddit with no ads” and I was on faster than you can say Lenin
deleted by creator
That’s not a shadowban, that’s a straight up suspension.
A shadowban is just when your posts and comments are filtered and hidden from others.
deleted by creator
Oh that’s weird. I just got straight-up banned the other day for saying something bad about Nazis 😂
i keep hearing how the obvious bots are trying to sanewash trump, or nazis in general by saying, its dangerous to keep calling trump facist or a nazi, and it says it “normalizes him”
deleted by creator
Fuck Nazis, fuck the KKK, and I’m not selling my wife’s gun at this point. Too much at stake.
thats the general notice from reddit, when they ban all your accs at once, even old ones you stopped using. its a bot doing it. i had like multiple accounts, each one for a specific niche, or sub, including throwaways, those in the niche subs(never gone on political or news subs) still got targeted. its mostly like whatisthisplant, or this medical issue.
and a nazi complained about a sub, and that got sub can banned, hmm seems spez is in league with said nazi.
another way to check, is while logged out and in private mode, you search up your account name to see if its suspended, or it doesnt exist.
Got shadow banned years ago for sharing the link to the εxodus privacy analysis of the Reddit app. There is a reason why they keep trying to pressure their users to use their app. It’s farming their personal data.

a dedicated anti-detect browsers eliminates reddit from identifying you, for the most part(plus if you use proxies as well)
deleted by creator
You can’t save them. Whoever is willing and mentally agile enough to look for alternatives will find us. Honestly, at this point, I’d be glad if especially the folks commenting on Reddit’s mainstream subs did not join Lemmy and capture it with their boring, antiquated, views and extremely repetitive quips.
The biggest hope I have is those that migrate over leave the reddit jokes on reddit. We don’t need a million comments about the guy with broken arms, swamps of dagobah, poop knife et al. flooding lemmy.
What the hell have you been seeing? Mine’s totally not that

i think it takes get permabanned to actually come here, they are addicted to reddit, simply because of all the trump trash worldnews/political post there, and news is like a narcotic, because these 2 genre, and adjacent subs are almost always on the front page. even the salty r/conservative is on the front page alot. the permaban people that are constantly evading bans are usually the ones trying to earn a living through OF, or advertising by posting en masse, usually with the help of privacy browsers, proxies, new devices,etc. funny how reddit is only going after them any evader aggressively, but doing nothing about the troll farm bots.
That’s interesting. I haven’t been banned for mentioning r/RedditAlternatives yet. I’m honestly shocked that sub still exists.
Fuck Reddit, they banned me because I reported discrimination and it was easier to get rid of the whiner than do their jobs.
Now I can’t talk nerdshit about The Sims anymore
Get the sims community started on Lemmy. Try to convince some people to join
Gwanda blitz!
did they say you reported too much? on several accs, i had either a temp ban from that sub, or instant lecture from a mod, saying “you cant report this person, just because you dont like his comment” i was thinking then, what is a reportable offense, like its spamming/botting, isnt that reportable, like do you want me to engage and argue, which makes its worst?. my most recent one which got me the recent ban was "you can report this much in this sub, and we think you are “brigading” so we are temporarily banning you sitewide, which triggered the sites AI bot to ban multiple accounts sitewide without giving a reason. how can you say you are fighting botting/spamming from countries like RU when your MODS, and admins are banning the reporter. turns out your site needs the RU bots, simply because they make close to half of comments and engagement in certain communities.
Thing is they didn’t warn me or anything, they just jumped to the perma ban and I had to find out from numerous appeal attempts where Inever got a non-bot response
i reported similar issues, either botting/or something totally untrue, and what they said was" oh you had made too many reports, we are now suspending your whole account temporarily, i deleted the acct. i dont think they warned anyone of a random ban, thats why i said it was pretty indiscriminate, they just want any amount of acc banned, so they can show to thier potential investors, its a clean site. i appealed on each of my other accts that perma ban all denied, by a bot, obviously. i think it auto-denies if its been sitewide banned
Temp? Mine was perms…
Auto-Denies eh? That explains why I hadn’t heard from anyone. Didn’t even get a deny message really.
It was actually my second perma-ban, I had one before in which I badmouthed Gina Carano, stating that I disagreed with her transphobia and was happy she was gone from the show…
I had been mass-reported for threatening to kill Gina Carano, and clearly it was a bot that just saw the volume of reports, I was unbanned within minutes of sending an appeal because it’s pretty easy to see that I said nothing of the sort, it was just Right-Wing Trolls.
I got Right Wing Trolls A LOT, they’d also mass report any post where I pointed out I was trans (regardless of context) for “Advocating for suicide and self-harm.”
I must have gotten the “A concerned redditor has reached out to us and we wanted to let you know there’s help out there…” message more often than actual ban messages.
They really should have thought of investors before becoming “Banishment: The Website”, not gonna be easy to sell a product no one’s allowed to actually use…
i think you were brigaded(a large amounts of people that mass report someone to get them banned) right wingers/trolls will do this. some mods are very anal about how you report"did they respond to your comment" or "dint bother commenting and just reported someone.
Nope, I heard not a damn thing from Reddit
yea once you get reported in large numbers its probably very hard to defend yourself, because these right wing trolls are using multiple different accounts. because the mods/filters are going to assume"oh its a bot trolling"
on a side note: i was “wretched” when people were defending gina carano on a youtube channel where she was a characther in deadpool"saying disney ruined her career"
Where Is the shadow part of the ban?
left side: logged in. exists.
right side: private window, not logged in. does not exist.
Interesting trick I should save for future use.
deleted by creator
A shadow ban is where they didn’t tell you that you were banned. A shadow banned user could go for years commenting and posting and never realised they were banned. It’s only if they check their posts while logged out that they realise.
it means nobody can see your comments or posts, its the result of a redditor that was making multiple accounts and evading bans 10+years ago. it tricks you into thinking you “arnt banned, or comments removed” this way reddit doesnt advertise to the bots, user that they are banned.
I’d imagine in that particular case it felt like spam. If someone came through here and was named Nick_From_Nike and only posted in threads related to Nike and only positively about Nike, I feel like many would quirk a brow.
Are we seeing shadowbans with established accounts that don’t have lemmy in their username? Considering r/redditalternatives is still going strong, seems unlikely.
The exact rules of what links are banned varies from subreddit to subreddit. After posting a comment, I usually check in a private browser window to make sure it wasn’t filtered.
you can also check if your shadowbanned/ incognito, if you look at any redditors profile. usually with typing in reddit dot com /user/[your account name]
