I haven't seen Reddit give so much attention to the Fediverse in a long time. Maybe we can help them and answer some questions.

omg the top comment just got deleted with over 500 upvotes

I think it was when it was edited to include specific links to Lemmy instances, instead of the join-lemmy.org website

I still see the comment on Spaduf's profile, but it shows as deleted in the post

I think maybe the link to lemmy.world is what triggered their filter? because that was edited in

    actually I think it was mander.xyz for some reason? and it doesn't seem to happen in r/fediverse

    no wait, something else is also doing it, midwest.social is also doing it, lemmy.world is clear, infosec.pub is clear, ttrpg.network is not allowed

    no idea how Reddit or r/technology chose which instances to ban lol
