   Mention Pixelfed, get banned on Facebook/Instagram.

   Meanwhile, we just started https://respectfulplatforms.org

   Every friend you save from Meta's ecosystem is one less person whose digital life can be erased at Zuck's whim.

   Spread the word.

     @pixelfed “Stay classy”? When were they ever?

     But I’ll be sure to check out the ‘mention the Fedi, get banned’ way to step out :-)

     @pixelfed was flagged as spam... haha good joke. I reported lot of accounts in past that are spreading s*x, spam and illegal content. There was never anything done on Meta.

     Is #Meta scared about the #Fediverse? 😃

     @pixelfed I linked my pixelfed on FB a few hours ago, nothing has happened yet. It's still there, friends have liked it.

     @pixelfed I could put my Pixelfed in my bio without any issues on Instagram. But I had some problems to post stories on Instagram one time when talking about other social media. When I wrote the names of the social apps and tried to send, it just gave some random error and didn't let me publish. When I tried to post again without the names, no error message appeared.

     @pixelfed FB wants Chen banned -> Chen pixelfed. (Not sure if that's too meta, or if it's even funny if you do get it.)

     @pixelfed needs a codename or emoji in the ilk of 'the bird app'

     @pixelfed It's all just business. They're protecting their rice bowl by extirpating the competition.

     @pixelfed I once got a post flagged and deleted because I talked about how Threads is a lot more invasive to privacy than alternatives like Mastodon, with screenshots of the permissions the app requires :kerbal:

     @pixelfed Meta immediately resorting to censoring any references to Pixelfed or alternative platforms *strongly* suggests they lack confidence in their own product, and that they know Instagram/Facebook are inherently less desirable after these policy changes.

     This is shameful and cowardly, even by Mark Zuckerberg's standards. Did he not realize what happened to Elon Musk when he tried to pull the same trick? People still left Twitter in droves.
