A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn’t even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It’s late here so I’ll see how we proceed tomorrow.

    This episode as a whole is a great illustration of the danger of allowing a private business to run one of the biggest spaces for community and discourse in the world.

    ActivityPub connects all of us. I’m also sure interopability will strengthen as these services grow.

    activitypub instances can decide to block other instances like gab.com.

    user accounts are bound to instances = vendor lockin.

    etc…

    a more decentralized protcol is nostr, see also https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/136090
