For those out of the Reddit loop (good!), the frontpage is full of subreddits banning Twitter links. Some even ban Facebook, Instagram, and Threads.
A bit late but ok
Twitter is dying? I keep hearing that and yet doesn’t it still have like 500m active monthly users? I would love nothing more but I’ll believe it when I see it…
499m bot accounts don’t really matter.
That’s great. But very interesting to see corporate social media fight each other. Reddit vs Twitter vs Meta vs chinese apps. What will come out of it?
Death of a few of them, and conglomeration into one of them.

all major subreddits are now banning
And that’s why people switched to Lemmy lol. We also got banned.
Spez would have been at the inauguration right next to Elon and Bezos if he’d been invited.
This is probably only gaining traction because little pissboy is butthurt about the snub.
“Darn that Elon and Bezos and Zuck! They think they’re SO cool just cuz they got more money! I’ll show them! I’ll-- I’ll-- I’ll unleash my army of snoos!”
Next scene: the big boys give spez a spanking, and the link ban is forbidden.
Nah he got the black wife, he doesn’t fit their nazi profile. He’s got (currently) the least “control” over his platform compared to the rest too.
Tbf neither does Couch Fucker Vance.
That’s why we haven’t heard a single thing from him. The amount of photo ops he needs to be in is pretty much over now after the church thing. They’ll probably move his office underground and forget he exists
You are thinking of Ohanian (I think his handle was kn0thing) - he married Serena Williams.
Wait really??
Lol I can’t wait until musk launches one more of his shitty lawsuits at reddit and spez panics and starts demodding people again
Happy im here now, even more happy to see other people here.
Not all of them. I saw that members of the Hearthstone subreddit’s mod team have come down hard on the side of Twitter, and don’t see any issue with the current behavior. I wouldn’t be surprised if the same was true of a lot of the smaller, more niche subreddits.
I don’t keep tabs on any of the larger subreddits anymore, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if some of them decided to stay with X. A lot of the people still modding are Spez bootlickers, and Spez LOVES Musk. We might even see a sitewide rule from Spez to force Twitter links to remain allowed.
“Hearthstone”
I remember enjoying that game till blizzard decided they align with dictatorships that censor the desire for freedom. I legit never went back after the boycott and knowing this new detail really reaffirmed that.
Good.
