This occurred today when I tried updating/deleting old comments via the Redact tool, on the old super-stonk sub.
Guess they're afraid of losing their captive Apes!
Just another reason to not use that other shitty site.

Gamestop discussions for Ape Hosers
Stock discussions for Canadian investors. Not affiliated with the company and not a support forum for Gamestop customers.
This is a backup forum for exodus from reddit. As of now (June 30 2023) the reddit /r/GMECanada is STILL ACTIVE but 3rd party mobile apps no longer work.
Rules:
- DON'T BE A KNOB EH? (Be nice, discuss the idea, not the person)
- Keep discussions related to GME (the stock and company news that may affect it).
- NO CRYPTO SPAM. (Valid discussions of L2 partnerships eg. loopring, Protocol Gemini, web3 gaming etc. are allowed).
- Mod(s) reserve the right to ban (temp or perma) for abusive/annoying behaviour, at their sole discretion.

MODERATORS
Lemmy and kbin are in the spam filter for long now and basically put the comment in a shadow removed state and if you mentioned it often enough it's a account ban/shadowban
For sure, it's what got me banned from s-stonk originally last month :) What a crock.
Not Just s-stonk, its all of reddit as far as I know, s-stonk is just transparent and banning you instead of shadowban.
Well, so far at least, it isn't applying to r/GMECanada (I'm the mod there) and references to 'lemmy' or overt links to this and other fediverse communities aren't being shadowbanned by reddit admins; just posted there a few hours ago and other users are seeing my post and comments.
I think superstonk mods themselves are applying these crazy rules to their own sub, specifically, in this case.
I’m honestly surprised at the transparency of saying the word in the message
That sub was turned into a quarantine zone basically, anything that would get close to the main page would have an accelerated decay rate, if it showed up at all
Yeesh. On a specific subdomain or the whole site?
The Superstonk sub. Just the word 'lemmy'. I tried editing some comments (which already mentioned lemmy, and had links to lemmy instances and communities!) ... and the edits resulted in those messages to my inbox.
They definitely are afraid of hemorrhaging control of their narrative. Unsure when exactly they added a generic filter for this keyword, but the fact the comments were already there, then the edits I did today triggered it, means it happened within the last month.
It’s a sub for delusional GameStop stock holders (I know because I’m one of them).
Absolutely nothing there is meant to be taken seriously.
A rune of glory to you.
The old site has been this way for over a year. It just took people a very long time to see it.
