Your case almost reads like satire. So extreme. Another reason to not miss reddit and its excessive gamification among with other terrible features. You make redditors look like zombies. No offense.

It's the way a Telegram bots deliver the links. See response above.

It's a Telegram bot that filters top rated articles in news.ycombinator and it links them like that. You can click the 'comments' link and see for yourself.

Try Notion. It is great for personal stuff, highly customizable. They have also added a set of project management tools recently.

The cultural defeat is so strong that people here are equating transparent and responsible leadership with corporate governance, lol. As if volunteer or small-project admins couldn't be serious or good.

I haven't claimed to be silenced by anyone at the moment. I'm just tired of like 10 people stating the obvious "join other instance" as if I didn't know it beforehand and said I was thinking of doing that same thing since my very first post; or stating that I shouldn't be demanding anything from the admins (not even reasons or transparency?)

I don't think I'm being aggressive at all, I do think this community is way to defensive about any criticism to this particular measure, and I think it is due to a deeply ingrained censorship culture that sites like Reddit and Facebook groups greatly normalized in the internet.

So tldr "stfu and gtfo"? I can get outta here and, been saying it from the beginning, I probably will, but I won't be silent about it.

That's why I made this post. Want to see transparency on why they blocked an instance. Honestly if the guys running this want Reddit 2 with all the oversanitization I think I'm going to set my main acc on another instance.

Yes I surely know it's not "a big deal" and I already said I will leave on my post.

But I won't be silent about it. This is about the culture of the platform itself.

This instance has been receiving a lot of newcomers like me, and to me this is not OK. It is not OK to let the admins decide the content you'll receive.

If instances keep defederating from each other, you're fostering a culture of censorship and isolation where admins decide over users.

Enjoy your echo chamber / tyranny as any other subreddit where mods did what they wanted with you.

Culture is more important than software.

Yeah, that's why I don't like much how they are using this place to repost memes or tweets. It's not content I really like, a written thought like yours will always be more genuine and personalized.

I was a Facebook user for years. Had my groups, valuable people I met, great knowledge and experiences. Gradually the algorithm screwed the fanpage experience, then they fucked up the groups, content started being more and more monotonous and low-intelligence. Now you open FB and it's half a 6 people echo chamber and half a TikTok imitation with low quality entertainment and information.

Switched to Reddit, and now seeing the same path to fuck the user experience and get us addicted and watching ads all day.

I doubt this will be ever massive but that does not matter, what matters is the ability to mantain a solid knowledge agreggator and an environment of open communities. I love to be part of Lemmy and want to contribute as much as possible.

Fuck capitalists and their ROI.
