The entire system wants you to forget about Luigi and the entire issue. Sort of memory hole it like so many other things and let them punish him in secret. So it's no surprise Reddit and others will try to Streisand it.

Exactly. That’s the best part. There would have been a Luigi article every once in a while giving an update or whatever. Nothing is going on with him rn. But blocking his name is getting everyone talking about him again, and some are switching platforms because of it.

They have been suppressing Luigi news every chance it pops up
The website is attacking the users that made it the front page of the internet
No they aren't. Those users have long since left Reddit lol
Yeah, it’s a playground for bots and misinformation now
i started visiting reddit back around 2009 when places like digg and fark kept linking over there. i liked it because it had a design that the average person wouldn't like - the old design. they sorted comments in a new way that i liked. it's been a slow boil, but look at the reddit monstrosity now. the redesign is puke-inducing, and there really isn't any point in the vote sorting any more because people don't upvote for visibility any more insomuch as just use it as like/dislike. there isn't even any benefit in trying to point that out any more either, because today's reddit users just don't understand that approach to votes - and it really, really sucks.
Hmmm, perhaps people should start linking threads from here on reddit....
Believe it or not: straight to jail.

I feel like the admins over there really take for granted how much people care about Reddit. The more they degrade the sense of community, the more it continues to crumble until users feel that there’s no point in going back.
With how many posts are just pure AI generated rage bait, it’s becoming more clear by the day how little worth there is left on Reddit.

This article fails to mention that Huffman has previously praised Musk and how he runs Twitter.
Huffman said he saw Musk’s handling of Twitter, which he purchased last year, as an example for Reddit to follow.
More importantly he's a doomsday prepper with fucked up views:

I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.
If I end up on top after the apocalypse I'll go out of my way to get him as a slave.

Not that anyone cares but this same shit is happening on Tictoc as well. Anything pro Lulgi, PaIestine or anti lsraeI is banned. I assume it's the same on Meta's other properties as well. Straight up fasclsm!
Good riddance to shitty platforms

Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi
Reminds me of the HD decryption key fiasco on digg. Everyone just kept posting it over and over in every thread. Moderators started banning people. People started jumping ship to Reddit.
It's what caused the first digg exodus, with the better known redesign failure being the second.

What's Reddit?
Another corporate shithole
Zombified Lemmy ancestor - - it's on the net.
Cries in MySpace.
Gonna post some emo song to my Netlog
Just another place for porn.
That is definitely the main reason i havent deleted the app to effectively evade my IP ban received for speaking facts regarding the Palestinian occupation. Because i have so many hot big tittied cam girl accounts stared on the side panel.
