Saidit inherits quarantines from reddit. There are no admin notes for that sub though, and I've never seen saidit quarantine that type of content before. I didn't know quarantines were even used. Maybe it's from the days before the "not on /s/all" option.

I can't lift it however. There's only one person on this site who's allowed to do that, and it's not me.

I kinda wish things weren’t quarantined.

I don’t have a verified email.

Me too. It's probably not supposed to be though.

Yea. O well. At least this isn’t Reddit.

Apparently the mod there kept censoring people in bad faith, lost mod privileges as a result, and subsequently left for poal.co.

There's not much there, here's a peek if you don't want to verify your email: https://i.imgur.com/gGUSBOz.png

    Yeah that sounds like what I'm suspecting, it was before "not on /s/all" was a thing. Those are the same things which now lead to that.

    Magnora7 has censored /s/HolocaustSkepticism and /s/Holocaust as well - leaving only /s/TheHolocaust, so far as I know.

    Oooh! Someone give me a list of quarantined subs, I'm curious

    [–]EternalSunset 7 insightful - 2 fun7 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

    Like 80% of Saidit's code is a copypaste of the last open source version of Reddit.

    [–]quantum-step 7 insightful - 4 fun7 insightful - 3 fun8 insightful - 4 fun -  (1 child)

    And the other 20% from stackoverflow replies.

    [–]Vulptex 6 insightful - 4 fun6 insightful - 3 fun7 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

    Well that's the original reddit code too. And almost all code out there.

    [–]Vulptex 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    It's actually a fork of it.

    [–]Site_rly_sux 6 insightful - 3 fun6 insightful - 2 fun7 insightful - 3 fun -  (7 children)

    Why don't admins want curious new users to see "holohaux" on the front page? It's a trick, a con - people should be allowed to discover that this hateful cesspool of a site, really sucks. It shouldn't be a secret that you have to discover later.

          You should leave for discussion quality. You are loud and dumb.

          I don't know about that. Ruqqus was way worse and it got really popular. Saidit is just suppressed in the same manner reddit suppressed my subreddits and all subreddits not controlled by /r/defaultmods.

          People are obsessed with the holocaust and nazis. Give it a rest already.

            Are you making the claim that no such thing ever happened? Or are you saying it was exaggerated. I think there is a tremendous distinction between these two things that people often do not make

              Yeah I don't disagree. I just think phrasing of it as "denialism" isn't helpful to getting this message out. The propagandists want to label people as holocaust "deniers" because normal people hear this and immediately dismiss any arguments, because they interpret this as someone claiming absolutely nothing ever happened, rather than the narrative being exaggerated and twisted by the victorious side, and are not likely to even consider such a claim.

              The taboo historians use the term 'revisionist'.

                Yes, I am well aware of this. But the average person is not going to be making this kind of nuanced distinction in semantics. When the NYT writes articles saying such and such an app or person was doing holocaust denial, the readers are definitely not aware of this distinction, and assume these people must be completely insane, because to them the holocaust just means 'The Germans rounded them up, robbed them, put them in camps, and a very large amount of them died' which is unquestionably true. You call this the 'natural consequence of war' but I'm not sure this is really an accurate depiction when a country is doing this internally, this is not 'war' in the colloquial sense that most people would use this word.

                If you want the facts to ever be anything more than fringe, I just don't think presenting it in this way is likely to be effective, people have been propagandized, they aren't going to be receptive to the framing of that argument unless they have already been radicalized against establishment narratives

                oh, i have to have a verified email to view that.. darn.. that is pretty hard to get.

                these forums are so fake.

                My email verification never gets sent to me.

                Last email I got from SaidIt was 2019.

                Are you sure your address correct? Or is it being blocked by your spam filter? I was able to get one just fine.

                [–]JasonCarswell 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

                It worked before. Not sure why it doesn't now.
