You literally cannot mention TheDonald.win without your post being completely shadowbanned, and this seems to apply for many other alternatives too. And this occurred on an already-existing post, not a new post. They searched old posts to nuke them. The whole list of alternatives that was stickied at the top of /r/redditAlternatives was deleted and d3rr had to re-write it like this to get past their new keyword filter.

This is insane! What website forbids even the mention of their competition? They've gone full authoritarian

The best part of their censorship though is the company ruins its own bottom line by actively forcing its customers to the competition. It’s not a great business strategy.

I agree, it's very short-term thinking, and the fact I knew they'd do this type of thing eventually, is exactly why I knew saidit would work when we first started it.
