Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.

      only reason I still go there is my mental support subreddits. r/stopdrinking, r/CPTSD, r/RaisedByNarcissists…

      If those communites were thriving here, I’d never go back to reddit again 🫤

        This is basically the case with any community that isn’t one of the broad topic/mass appeal subreddits. If you’re looking for discussion on anything even slightly specific Lemmy and other alternatives just completely fall on their face. Whether that’s support for a specific addiction or even just conversation about one particular video game series, your options are Reddit, discord, Twitter, or nothing.

          That used to be a problem on Reddit, too. Maybe the current drama will drive more traffic to the Fediverse.
