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

    How anyone is still on that shit hole site after what we saw two summers ago is beyond me. Every few months it’s something new, yet so many people continue to stick around.

    I don’t get it. The moment I don’t feel safe on a site, I leave. If you are on Reddit, you are not safe.

      I’m sure the majority of reddit users either don’t know or don’t care about the events of two summers ago. And with reddit cracking down on more and more content…they may not even know about all of the stuff reddit is cracking down on. How long until a crackdown on posts about reddit cracking down?

        If they don’t know then they are ignorant of the platform they are on and that is not a good way to operate in general. If they don’t care, then their values are misaligned but we can’t do anything about that.

        You can’t make people engage in self-respect

      So true… honestly at this point I hope it just gets worse so people jump ship to lemmy. Might be hopeful thinking that people will actually switch. But having a company control public discourse always seems to end badly. Not looking at you twitter.

        Sadly I think most will just switch to bluesky so they can see the next disaster of enshittification unfold.

        Also it doesn’t help most celebrities moved to bluesky as well. Then there is the fact you have to choose an instance on lemmy which scares most people away.

        I hope lemmy gets traction…
