To explain: I first tried posting a lemmy link to the 'whynotdrs' domain.. that got flagged. Then I fixed the link by self-censoring 'whynotdrs' with hypens, and mentioning the censorship on the sub using the shorthand 'ess-ess' (two capital letters)... and r/Superstonk flagged my mentions of that as as derogatory references, so I had to change those to 'S-S'. WTF.
EDIT: Banned for 3 days from the S-S sub for daring to complain. They claim it's for the use of 'Ess-Ess' (yeah, nazis whatever) but the original comment was blocked due to the mention of 'whynotdrs', and I hadn't used the token 'Ess-Ess' until my replies/reposts (I'll say it here - Voldemort! 'SS') when re-posting the original comment in follow-ups. So they're avoiding addressing the original issue; why is 'whynotdrs' verboten?
I got banned for saying FUCK CHAMATH! That mod power be really changing folks. I don't understand why, you are literally working for free in order to help reddit get a big IPO.

Not surprised..

I never really kept up with mod drama. Aside from those phrases being banned, what's wrong with the current state of the sub?
