I come specifically from this.
I was intrigued and I had never heard of the fediverse before. The rabbit hole brought me here :)
Some promotional posts were made on Reddit in the right comms, although none of them specifically exploded - albeit one was made also in r/buyCanadian and it seemed to surge.
cant be reddit bans, they have largely laid off the massive bans. although i have heard they upped thier methods of detecting would be ban evasion methods.

That was the big one, but there was something else smaller last year.

I saw it in a post about people getting temp bans for simply stating that EU allies would be right to defend Greenland in case of military action. Might just have been one of several grievances with Reddit at the moment though

Woah, I haven’t heard about this. Are those temp bans on specific subreddits or a site-wide ban for not being pro-Trump?

It was 3 day site wide bans as I understood it. Reason given was that saying that Greenland should defend itself was “threatening violence”.
The thread in question, thing it is in r/Sweden https://www.reddit.com/r/sweden/s/BvEiqSM2cf

its also too easy to get banned. new accounts and old inactive accounts becoming suddenly active are highly likely to get banned.
