RE: Reddit censoring all steemit links
Just tested on an inactive subreddit I moderated. Steemit.com link I posted was automatically removed and required me to approve it as a moderator.
Fuck Reddit.
On the plus side, busy.org links are not censored for now.
This is some serious big brother 💩. Reddit is running scared apparently. Busy.org links will have to do!
Maybe they are scared. Maybe there was just too many people spam posting? I certainly have seen that, as people are spam posting link-posts to their external websites/profiles whatever.
Probably that is the reason plus they don't want to see other similar sites getting the traffic!
Ok, so they're blocking steemit but not worried enough to actually look and do some research on steem(it). We still have time then to build more.
This is great news btw :)
When the old guard start taking notice of the new, small scale (and we are still small scale) efforts to improve and replace what they see as their core, it means we're doing some things right.
Just wait til they look in to us properly and start to block everything that plugs in to the blockchain. Then we will know we're in business.
Well now we'll only post with busy decentralization works guys :D
Interesting they don't censor Busy links. Puts a new spin on the idea of uncensorable blockchain based social media. The more frontends, the harder it will be for them to censor.
They just haven't realized it yet. I'm sure the 2 seconds it takes to add a url to the list isn't the issue here. They could add all the known steem sites in a minute. I think the only question is how long until they realize and go looking.
