Joan Westerberg has been doing great work on the Fediverse. I pasted this link in the one sub I miss r/idiocracy:

https://www.joanwestenberg.com/big-tech-wants-you-trapped-the-open-web-sets-you-free-2/

My post was really good — I used Idiocracy speech to get my scros to join me in LEMMY and not only was the post rejected but I earned a temporary ban at Reddit.

At this point there isn’t even a point in going back to leave a breadcrumb trail to be followed.

    the only way I end up there lately is through search results. even then half the time what im looking for got blanked out or deleted by someone leaving reddit.

      Genuinely such mixed feelings about all the deleted old posts. I swear it’s well over half of the time I search up some kind of tech issue and all the relevant posts are gone. But the replies saying “thanks this fixed it so fast!” are always still there lmao.

      Like I’m glad there’s less and less of a reason to go to Reddit. Fuck that site. But also… goddamn!

          Archive should probably work, but I always seem to forget about it lol.

          I only access Reddit through libreddit instances and they usually have links to various undelete services in place of the deleted comment, but they never seem to work :(

            is your tracker protection off? there’s usually a reminder but i personally keep forgetting anyway
