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

I dont get why people visit it anymore. The censorship, gatekeeping and botposting is just absolutely bonkers.

Like okay, maybe if you only watch memes and cat pictures I can kinda understand. But every single sub I've been in had an idiotic amount of gatekeeping. Just mentioning grapheneos in some subs could get you banned. Just mentioning luigi mangione could get you banned. Oh your post is falsely flagged as inappropriate? Banned, and good luck trying to appeal.

It's become an absolute dystopian shithole. Lemmy isn't perfect but at least if the host of your instance goes insane you can leave for another. And if you don't like what you see you can choose to block it.
