Estonian, .ee is the country extension
Aaaand it's gone, and I've been banned from the sub.
got 80,000 views and 1300 upvotes before is disappeared though, so I see that as a win, I'm sure a few people signed up.
To be fair, I was spamming should have read the rules better, a warning would have been nice.
Banned from r/BuyFomEU due to excessive promotion...
How are people supposed to behave on that sub?
"excessive promotion", right.
You're doing great work.
Really? I was able to comment a couple of minutes ago.
I still see Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/BuyFromEU.
You can comment but I think it's just "Hidden" idk
Seems like an odd sub to promote Lemmy in.
They were likely posting about the BuyFromEU Lemmy community.
So much talk about duplicate communities, which is just so weird to me, seeing as reddit also constantly has duplicate communities despite being centralized :D which one the main one is also sometimes changes based on events/drama
Seems to me just people being resistant to change just because it's change.
I like that the top comment went from “there are too many communities I want just one” to “Im joining to make it better for others”.
It's also my biggest complaint, but I avoid it by just browsing local all.
When you search for a community just pick the biggest one. Really all there is to it. Honestly reddit had the same issue with similarly named subs
My point is that I don't search for or subscribe to communities, though. Instead I browse all and mute communities I'm not interested in. This is much harder to do on global all.
In my view this isn't a problem that needs to be fixed, it's just something new users have to get used to.
Yeah but that's what I'm saying, this happens in exactly the same way on Reddit too
Just attempting to go to /r/anime for example ist still a lot easier tho.
I‘m not saying you can’t get used to it, but its obviously something thats worse. Especially if the whole federation thing is new for them.
You can check out, but you can never leave.
I just left a comment 2 years ago or so that got me permanently banned and came here and never looked back. Can't get my wife to switch because there's not enough stuff here. She got an account but just went back 2 days later.
Great quote but one of the points is that Lemmy makes it easier to switch between servers haha!
Welcome to our little hell pit, you new rascals! :)
Well done!
I feel that the best thing about federated social like Lemmy is just that there's no reason to engagement farm. Like I could get big on Lemmy but unless I'm able to direct that traffic somewhere else effectively, who cares?
nice
