Reddit seems to have introduced sitewide AI moderation bots that are sweeping up users and outright banning them, without warning or explanation, for crimes like including links in their posts. This has started to hit some pretty well-known artists in r/comics.
It’s inconsistent and unpredictable - which makes it worse, since you don’t know what the rules are. As companies like Reddit give up more and more control to unaccountable machines, this kind of thing is getting more common.
Reddit has always had kind of a strange relationship with contributors and what is often called “self-promotion”. On one hand, it wants Content… But it can’t seem to decide where it wants the content to come from.
It’s nice that we’ve got alternative spaces like this.
Anyway, have some links:
- More comics:
- Patreon
Post over here! We would love the comics!
Fediverse people are fun and actual people. Well other than the furries.
indeed, some of us are things rather than people ;3
I do post here! I don’t have my whole archive here, but I started !loveandhex@lemmy.ca recently and crosspost from there.
Am I blocked or something!?
I don’t know, I haven’t blocked anyone. Different apps might render community links differently?
sounds like loveandhex needs another subscriber
Plus 1. I support anyone fleeing Reddit.
