Contained in these parentheses is a zero-width joiner: (​)

Basically, add those to whatever you feel that might be filtered out, then remove the parentheses. The content inside the parentheses is invisible, but it screws with regex rules.

Good, I was getting fed up with being told over there that Canadians are useless and can't make a difference... this just tells me they're worried because we ARE making a difference🍁

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Woah...Reddit is anti-Canada? Honestly Reddit has always given me bad vibes, and from the sounds of things it's just getting worse...

[–] ehpolitical 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Not sure where they're all coming from, but there's this group who are there just to harass Canadians and they've been noticeably growing in numbers. One recent post was a very detailed, well-written plan about how the US is going to take over Canada, step by step. So it's not just small-time nonsense anymore. It's bad.

smells more like back by troll farms for RU, they always do this kind of sht. remember they had to use jack prosebic to astroturf luigi news last month. since canadians, hopefully are cancelling thier plans to florida, the state is going to suffer massively if nobody visits pro-gop disney parks

[–] ehpolitical 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Sorry, I don't understand a lot of what you're saying... sounds very techie to me, and I'm not the brightest that way.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

RU as russian bots, drive alot of engagement(mostly in political subs, and news subs, they are behind all the misinformation in social media) and have been known to subsists most of the comments in those subs, luigi was the guy that shot a health insurance CEO, and everyone but the billionaires and thier MSM were applauding him. overtime news about luigi was being suppressed by reddit, and and on msms as well, as recently as last month a "social media influencer by the name of jack proesebic(owner of end wokeness) tried to astroturf him, and the account(jack who married a "russian-back wife" works as influencer for putin, similar to other right wing griftersd)

Reddit is a horrible place

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Yeah we don't need Reddit to advertise Lemmy. I don't use reddit and reddit is obviously guarded against competitors since they're a corporation. I guess discord would be a better way to advertise Lemmy since it's not direct competition. So I guess post Lemmy links there

If you just created account, if you comment on some subreddit it immediately shadowban you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

thats actually new thing to me, i have seen alot of the famous subs have upped thier filters, i avoid them by filtering out those subs from my feed. also people might make a mistake by accidentally commenting on the sub they were ban years ago, apparently the filters doesnt discrminate or clear itself once your bans are lifted or years old.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

It's suck, but if you make reddit account again, wait for around 3 month, or 1 year just to safe before comment. Or you can comment on smaller subreddit but don't make post. Just comment

Subreddit like r/linux shadowban you if you make post if your account too new

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

may have to try that. i was in a forum, where people are create tons/buying of accs at once and trying to comment in less than 1 week, i was thinking these people should chill especially with the bans going on(and these are the OF accs, using evasion methods) and your making things worst by increasing reddits filter sensitivity to bots and people that are flying under the radar are getting caught as well(these people who are using more advanced techniques to evade bans have 50+accs). i am aware of several subs that will ban/remove comments you asap if your karma and acc age isnt high enough.

What's a reddit?

Oh, yea, that dumpster fire I walked away from 2 years ago. It still exists?

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Sadly, yes.

Not gonna lie, I was only there to encourage people to get off Reddit.

Perhaps using this picture instead of writing the link in plain text will help prevent the Reddit bots from detecting that one is recommending Lemmy there:

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

We need to figure out a way to recruit with to out outright posting it there.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Text as pictures, word-of-mouth, bugging people in Youtube referring to Reddit to use Lemmy instead, coded languages...

I moderate r/spezholedesign and have set up AutoModerator to promote Lemmy on all posts. I have made a post directly linking to lemmy.world and nothing has happened. I've never gotten shadowbanned or suspended

That's not a shadowban, that's a straight up suspension.

A shadowban is just when your posts and comments are filtered and hidden from others.

Got shadow banned years ago for sharing the link to the εxodus privacy analysis of the Reddit app. There is a reason why they keep trying to pressure their users to use their app. It's farming their personal data.

You can't save them. Whoever is willing and mentally agile enough to look for alternatives will find us. Honestly, at this point, I'd be glad if especially the folks commenting on Reddit's mainstream subs did not join Lemmy and capture it with their boring, antiquated, views and extremely repetitive quips.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

i think it takes get permabanned to actually come here, they are addicted to reddit, simply because of all the trump trash worldnews/political post there, and news is like a narcotic, because these 2 genre, and adjacent subs are almost always on the front page. even the salty r/conservative is on the front page alot. the permaban people that are constantly evading bans are usually the ones trying to earn a living through OF, or advertising by posting en masse, usually with the help of privacy browsers, proxies, new devices,,etc. funny how reddit is only going after them any evader aggressively, but doing nothing about the troll farm bots.
