I posted an updated guide on r/Adobe Zii a bit ago. It got taken down last week and I re-posted it here: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/43935446 Super grateful that this community exists. I posted to r/Adobe Zii that my guide was taken down and warning that it looks like reddit is cracking down on piracy (I am guessing an Adobe spokesperson is abusing reddit’s copyright reporting system). Now today reddit emails me saying that I received another copyright warning for posting that my other post was removed: https://www.reddit.com/r/AdobeZii/comments/1kioy3i/reddit_took_down_my_adobe_zii_guide/
I decide hey lets try and appeal as there was not any copyrighted material in my post about my guide being removed. Turns out they want my full name, address, and other identifying info to send to the copyright complainant. Not doing that.
Just disappointed as I’ve actively used reddit for years and love all the communities on this place. Seems like its slowly going down hill. Guess I should have seen that coming with the whole API shenanigans last year.
TL;DR reddit sucks and it does not appear any way to appeal without giving Adobe my info
im there because there’s a lot of niche communities that just dont exist here, or have any active users.
There is always another pocket of the internet! Hell I’d take discord over Reddit. There is always a discord server for an interest or hobby. Discord is getting dicey as well but Reddit is so far ahead of them on the enshittification spectrum.
Discord is already prepping for an IPO so why bother putting any energy into moving off Reddit, finding, and getting involved with communities on there when it’s going to be yet another shit show in fairly short order?
They already exist and it’s not as far along, as I said. And at least it doesn’t have Spez the greedy piggy. Plus a migration is way easier to plan on discord .
Discord is now run by the former vice chairman of Blizzard. That, combined with it being only “not as far along” in the enshittification process actually makes the idea of putting time and energy into finding a niche community that I can jive with on Discord less appealing than simply sticking it out with Reddit and it’s known variables until something substantial forms on Lemmy or some other platform that hasn’t begun severely degrading due to corporate ownership.
That’s my personal opinion anyway.
Most hobby reddit communities have an associated discord, there isn’t much effort needed at all. And again, reddit is objectively worse right now. If you’re willing to stay there and put up with it, what’s a few clicks to go to a slightly less shitty one that can more easily migrate to something like Revolt? Chances are you already have a discord account. You know how trivially easy it is to join a server.
Or fire up a community here. Get some users off reddit and get it started. I’m sure someone will gladly take up the mantle.
