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?

The thing to do now is post it in an image. They can't autodetect the text in the image . its possible for sure but they're not spending money on that

Or just use an url shortener

Some people are rightly skeptical of shortened URLs due to malware etc. Also the point would be to show the name of the site. Probably users won't click the link and scroll on but they will see the image.
