It's almost exactly a copy of reddit issues but most people that use reddit haven't heard about it.

Reddit removes (or at least did at one point) any lemmy links or posts trying to get people to switch to Lemmy.

    I wonder if other platforms do the same.

    Not the only case of this happening; Corporate Social Media providers do not want the Fediverse to succeed at all.

    Instagram (and Fascbook, and WhatsApp, and Threads) all censor references to PixelFed.

    If you cross post, it is best to watermark your photos with your PixelFed address.

    Watermarking is great when there is a strong enough community to make original content. I'm sure there are communities like that, but I'm not in many of the hobby communities here.

    My posts and comments linking to Lemmy have stayed up, and received comments.

    Maybe it's true for some subreddits as a mod choice, but it isn't true for all subreddits.
