So AntonioOfVenice has just been suspended for explaining a "comment removal" because Reddit would not like users to 'know' why comments are being removed. The kafkachamber walls are closing in.

Real question, because it's impossible to tell from a perspective of a regular old user - do these wink wink, nudge nudge kind of euphemisms really work on people who don't already know what .win is? I think that I have a certain limited understanding of the predicament you're in with this, and from that limited understanding you're doing the right thing, but it's incredibly frustrating to watch at times
Yes-ish.
It's a defensive measure. For some reason Reddit hasn't banned the whole .win domain. The less we actually say https://kotakuinaction2.win the less attention it gets. They consider everything 2 clicks from the link to be enforceable on Reddit. Which means sometimes even linking the home page is a bad idea. But the message is still there. People either know about the site, or will ask for a link. If they don't know, I tell them. If they do know, I'm just reminding them.
I am on the side of obsessively calling out the censorship regime at reddit - even if it makes the site and conversations “less welcoming”
“we are banned from discussing that topic here, for more details and more free speech - check out kotakuinqction2.win”
I like it.
