I've seen a few people doing similar in the relevant sub for their community but I do think it's worth getting mod permission first, and ofc if those particular mods aren't in support of the blackout it might be a harder sell. Still worth asking though!
The other consideration is that some people have actually been banned for advertising Lemmy or Kbin so bear that in mind when you choose which account to do it with.
I have asked one of the mods if it's okay. Let's see.
Yeah... that's what I am afraid of. I don't think that anyone in the Godot (as aw whole) would ban someone for that. But you never know...
I think it's more Reddit themselves handing out the bans, as far as I can tell anyway.
Oh okay. What a shit show as of late.
Yeah advertising in r/Godot would be nice. Looks like youve contacted the mods but if you want me to be the one to post let me know. I'm fine with you posting if you want though
I'll also try to get the community on https://godotengine.org/community/
I will let you know what they are answering. And you can post the ad makes more sense (and has more credibility) if you do it. :)
I haven't heard back from the mod btw. Did you get an answer to get the community onto the godot/community page?
I would wait some more. Most people will just shrug off the current protest/blackout. So many subreddits stayed open that the average user just has a slightly different feed for a short while. And posting multiple times in there would just be rude to their mods. Interest in alternative platforms will grow once third party apps die and good mods start tapping out.
For now, let's just try and keep things active in here. 🤷♀️
Welcome to the programming.dev Godot community!
This is a place where you can discuss about anything relating to the Godot game engine. Feel free to ask questions, post tutorials, show off your godot game, etc.
Make sure to follow the Godot CoC while chatting
We have a matrix room that can be used for chatting with other members of the community here
We have a four strike system in this community where you get warned the first time you break a rule, then given a week ban, then given a year ban, then a permanent ban. Certain actions may bypass this and go straight to permanent ban if severe enough and done with malicious intent
