I came here to look to see if this topic was covered. I just checked my mod queue and every single post made by my automod OR other users about Lemmy was reported multiple times for "harassment" with 40+ down votes as well. I've literally never had a full mod queue that was more than 6 things before and I had 30 or more posts to approve with 3 being actual things. What the fuck.
Wouldn't be surprised at all if it's reddit themselves reporting and downvoting posts with bots. Spez doesn't have a clean track record after all.
this confirms that there is indeed brigading behavior
No no no, see bridging is only brigading when it goes against the administrations (Reddit admin) desires.
My two cents: good! Let the shitty people stay on reddit. I'm loving the respectful communities here on lemmy, and don't really want those clowns coming over and messing it up for us.
I just deleted all my posts, comments and my account on Reddit. No need to get frustrated over people who wants to be a part of that shit show. Also you can't be sure that they are real people and not paid trolls to discourage people. At this point anything is possible with Reddit.
It’s frustrating that these trolls keep contributing to the big lie that “Lemmy is not ready yet” and that there’s “no viable alternative to Reddit”.
That's not frustrating at all! That's GOOD! It's proof they see Lemmy as a threat, and right now, it is!
Reddit HQ, or an apartment block in Russia, or a warehouse in turkey, or a basement in Saudi Arabia..
Are the reports of warnings for posting Lemmy links true?
Haven't encountered any so far, mostly just getting systematically downvoted for mentioning Lemmy and then getting attacked by trolls like the one I mentioned, who without surprise always get upvoted.
