I’m considering rewriting all of my comments, but I want to do this carefully and correctly because I’d eventually want to delete the account, so I wouldn’t be able to make changes
I want to keep it short and sweet, but be informative, make very good points, and hopefully persuade any user to try out the fediverse
What did you guys change yours to? I’m thinking something along the lines of this:
This comment has been rewritten so that its’ content is removed. On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit. This hurts many types of users, and the way that the CEO has handled the situation is not right at all. Reddit is another victim of pure corporate greed.
Some may not consider this important to them, but for anyone who sees this, I strongly encourage you to join the fediverse. It will be confusing at first, but it is very welcoming :) Alternative platforms:
I feel like it’s too wordy (I tend to ramble). I’m trying to find compact “elegantly worded” reasons about what’s going on and why it’s wrong, with links of good posts, but a lot of that is on reddit. Can you guys help a bro out?
I was just permanently banned from /r/damnthatsinteresting (which currently does not have any mods) for a 4-month old comment I edited with PDS.
It sounds like they very much don’t like that we are doing this :)
My edit read a lot like the first post here, but I didn’t mention the fediverse at all. I did say that I used Power Delete Suite, though.
No swearing, nothing like that.
It had around 150 upvotes at the time of edit.
That sub (and many others) have odd rules right now as a part of the protest. Some have gone as far as making everyone a moderator.
This likely has nothing to do with reddit inc directly.
What the heck?!!! If there are no mods then who’s doing the banning???
