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.

      I just got my authorization for lemmy.one. It’s close to me so it’s super fast, was having real problems with the local instance here, not the operator’s fault, just my relative location. Anyway I’m all set to browse the fediverse with Lemmy, reminds me of the old days of the internet, before everything was monetized. Reddit did me a favor by blowing me out.

      Same for Beehaw. They’re working really hard to keep everything kind, to the point they defederated with communities with open sign ups that were sending lots of low-effort/mean/troll comments.
