Summary
Hundreds of subreddits are debating banning links to X.com (formerly Twitter) following Elon Musk’s Nazi salute at a Trump rally.
Dozens of subreddit moderators have already implemented bans, while others are holding votes among their communities.
The bans span political, regional, and topical subreddits, including r/NewJersey, r/londonOntario, and r/christianity, with some highlighting Musk’s gesture alongside neo-Nazi imagery.
This move reflects growing backlash against Musk and his platform over perceived alignment with extremist symbolism.
Deadass, its like old reddit, make a community or just post something you are interested in, people will likely respond, don’t trip about numbers, your posts are shown to a greater pool of people that are likely to interact in a meaningful way. Compare it to reddit where you might get pelted with downvotes or can’t even post in some communities without following the excessive rules (or enough karma, i joined before this was an issue). Reddit also has the problem where if you have tons of ppl commenting, ppl just say shit without thinking or act like they have credibility when they don’t. Tons of shills for brands, you’d think the options in the sidebar there for each niche were the only viable ones.
