They are deleting all references to kbin/lemmy.
Then the more fediverse links that get posted, the more work they'll have to do. Do they have the staff to keep up? (That's a rhetorical question.)
Reddit is already making liberal use of AI bots to post and reply, I suspect they will use them to moderate soon enough. After a while, it will just be bots talking to bots (self-generated content) and I think Reddit management will be fine with that as long as Wall Street doesn't notice or care.
Source on this?
It seems lemmy links were removed from r/Piracy's sidebar (maybe by the mods, possibly by admins), but their pinned post still has links to both their own piracy instance and the piracy community on lemmy.ml. So maybe pinned posts are safe.
I've put the kBin links on the sidebar of my subs.
What ate the new magazines? Promote them here!
a watermark in every post with image/videos that shows the address, eventually even new members will notice and migrate
Well then we'll just have to post even harder.
All the more reason to keep mentioning them in regular comments then - they might be able to moderate stickied posts themselves but they can't read through every comment on every subreddit.
Why not just program a bot to crawl their site looking for any string that says "lemmy" or "l e m m y" or what have you? I'd think it's be easy for them to do, the bigger question is what kind of backlash they would get for it.
I'd be more worried about martyring lemmy on Reddit which would just force more traffic over here imo.
Or maybe they dont think Lemmy is actually a threat.
Source on that?
