The guide post presenting Lemmy on /r/buyfromEU has been removed

It would be a shame if somebody posted weekly reminders.
- The mods might consider that "excessive promotion", they've already given @buyeuropean@feddit.org a warning when he posted https://buy-european.net/en, probably because it "competes" with their own website
  
  The moment it becomes a competition, everyone lost. We should be cooperating. If they are saying it's competition, they are trying to gain something from it and should be avoided.
  
  Everything is a commodity. Sucks.

How dare you trying to help the people. How dare you promoting a plattform:
without adds
~~with free speech~~ (without centralized censorship)
that is decentralized
that is open source
without a company behind it
with all the same features
run by the people who use it
- You can replace "with free speech" with "without centralized censorship"
- free speech how? I thought there were some limitations on legality since a lot of servers are from different countries and don't have the same laws
- Free speech that the mods agree with that is. I was perma banned for c/Europe for privately objecting when a moderator removed this image I posted in a reply decrying antisemitic conspiracy theories in their forum. The mods left the libelous post up, and deleted my sarcastic, but otherwise civil response.
  Maybe my opinion was wrong, but it certainly wasn't dangerous, hateful, threatening or intentionally misleading, as the original post was. Lemmy has a lot going for it, but let's not pretend that free speech on this site is anything other than window dressing. The Mods are still judge, jury and executioner inside their fiefdoms.
  It just hasn't become a problem for the majority of users, because we're a relatively small, ideologically homogeneous community. If the fediverse ever becomes mainstream, you'll start seeing that freedom of speech disappear as moderators sort out the dissenters, and authoritarians work their way into positions of authority.
  
  Impressive modlog for a 20 days account: https://feddit.nl/modlog?userId=18840134
  There is not only one Europe community. I guess you were banned from !europe@feddit.org , but there is !europe@lemmy.ml and !europe@sopuli.xyz where you can still post, or even create your own Europe community

Of course it was, did anyone expect any different?
- I was still giving the mods the benefit of the doubts.

So sad to see such miserable people censoring in order to keep their moderation privileges in a random site on the internet.

Bootlicking reddit mods. Who would've thought?

So the mods removed a 48 days old post just all of a sudden?
- Not sure if it's the mods or Reddit. I used to link to it quite a lot, so maybe that raised an alert to the admins
  
  It must mean it’s making a difference, to the point where someone is trying to censor it.
- Elmo's cronies have been trawling Reddit lately.

Luckily the one you wrote on https://www.reddit.com/r/BoycottUnitedStates/comments/1jrcrh6/lemmy_as_an_nonus_alternative_to_red_dit_using/ is still there :)
- Good point!

No wonder. Reddit is very censored and allows no competition.

Very sad to see. I wonder why?

So... Just change account names and start promoting mbin. It's a different word and the word search band can't find it. Don't say 'fediverse' - say 'federated servers' too to avoid that one.
