I posted this article on c/politics and it was quickly taken down by mods. I was informed that the reason was
Rule 1, no social media or blogs
However, c/politics rule 1 states:
Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
I am curious if all substack articles are removed from that community, or just ones that the moderators disagree with.
Yeah if you check [email protected], the politics of lemmy.world mods consider Substack, a software method of content hosting, blogs. But not Wordpress, even though it is the same method of hosting content and is neutral to the content being used for it.
If Fox News used Wordpress, it’s allowed to be posted. If NPR used Substack, they’d remove it. It’s backwards methods of determining fake news/accuracy.
Fox is removed on general principle. :)
That’s fair enough
