Apparently Reddit has now banned a subreddit dedicated to the Fediverse Reddit-alternative Kbin:

If you're on a centralised platform like Reddit, this is what they can do. Centralised platforms have all-powerful leaders who can do whatever they want, and you have no alternatives if you disagree.
The point of the Fediverse being on lots of servers is that each server's power is limited. If you disagree with one server's actions, you can move.

They hit r/LemmyMigration and it’s creator once already, right before they announced the Spez AMA. They were quietly unbanned after a while with claims of it being a “mistake”.
I have a feeling they’ll try a much more thorough purge soon, despite all evidence showing how disastrously that would backfire.
You bet! I was flabbergasted during the AMA, in one post spez was crying reddit is not profitable, while in another one he was bragging about managing reddit for an insane amount of years, and I was like, seriously?? After all these years you still haven’t learned how to make money??
I guess they’ll go after r/Lemmy next.
It seems reddit still haven’t learned what a Streisand effect is lmao.

I know nothing about business but it seems like they’re moving from one mistake to another recently.

No wonder the slew of mistakes with such a CEO.
