It’s so toxic how Youtube will remove your comment on a video if you mention “Lemmy” or any other suggestion to descentralized alternatives to Technofeudalism. This has also happened to me on Reddit.

It’s frustrating that they treat the fediverse like a trigger word, it drowns the possibility to guide people to new communities.

    I have the feeling YouTube removes my comments if I edit them shortly after creating them.

    Also, it feels like they remove comments quickly if they are reported often. At least I have the feeling that if I post factual but unpopular comments, they are more likely to get removed after a short while.

    Anyway, it makes sense they remove more than they used to as they had a big spam problem. Now it’s better but them removing valid comments too quickly as collateral makes sense.
