I joined Lemmy because of that post. So thanks to OP and whoever recommended the app Voyager
- reddit mods' authoritative feel is something you can't dare to snatch lol, those neckbeards would run (for the first time ever in their life) to give you the ban hammer /s

Another one. I don't know why, but I think the comments were too much about lemmy/fediverse.
- Well, seems quite relevant as answers to that question
- You can use https://old.reddit.com/r/Buy_European instead, the mods there are chilled.

Seems like the mods from r/buyfromeu on reddit don't really want european alternatives to win when it means them leaving their subreddit in favor of something actually european
- There is some drama between the r/Buy_European and r/BuyFromEU subs.

  Hum, interesting 🤔

That was my post, I'm having a chat with the mods now, hoping they can reinstate the post. a warning would have been nice before removing the post and banning me, but let's see what comes of this.
- Trust me, nothing will come of this.

God, the number of confidently incorrect comments there.

Reddit is the new Twitter. Change my mind.
- its a censorious shithole, atleast on lemmy i only get downvoted if i write my opinion.

Wtf… that’s so wrong

I saw this post and hey at least from what I've seen in the comments some people were corrected and decided to give it a try so it did have impact.
Too bad the r/BuyFromEU team removed it tho

Does anyone know who the subreddit’s moderators are
