Reddit just auto removed my comment with a link to Lemmy.ml

I was commenting on a Japanese sub to guide them to Lemmy and my comment becomes "[ Removed by Reddit ]" after a few seconds. Was this always the case?

I wouldn’t put it past them in an attempt to protect their IPO. It’ll be exposed almost immediately, but it’s not like an idea being terrible has stopped spez before.

AITA for wishing their IPO to be a complete failure ? Like, the stock dropping 90% on the first day ?

NTA. They’ve tried to screw us all for money and if there’s any justice in the world they’re about to find out what made their site so attractive to investors the hard way. Fuck ‘em.

/r/WallStreetBets will probably find a way to lay it to waste in the first ten minutes.

feeling like an asshole for wishing corporate douchbags to fail is your capitalistic conditioning acting up. If their IPO makes reddit and their portfolio take a nosedive, then that's on them. They took the risk, they can live with the consequences. Gosh, perhaps some of them will be forced to work a normal job again, like the rest of us

Only people I feel for is the workers at Reddit. Not their fault their boss is an asshole.

Thing is, the only people that lose at that point at the buyers, not reddit itself
