My post about our database website was deleted too. Guess it's a more closed community focusing on their database.

Wait, what? How come that a post about your database website got removed? What was the reason invoked?

No reason given. Might have been due to the fact the account was new? Not sure. I even messaged the mod team beforehand to ask for permission but did not receive a reply, so just posted and after around 20 upvotes the post was gone.

I'm sure at some point another user (with a more established account) will try to post it there and we will see what happens.

There was another post sharing your site, it got removed too.

As one of the mods is the creator of buy-european-made.eu, maybe they want to favor their website? Seems weird in any case

Thanks for the info - I guess so too. Makes you wonder whether the mission is the primary goal. ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

Would be interesting to see if they remove informational content like infographics too. [clears throat] https://mastodon.social/@buyeuropean/114096858372085737
