I usually don’t get too salty about these things, but that seemed uncalled for, especially since I’m on their side.

    They probably have a blanket ban on promoting competing Reddit clients, and didn’t bother to figure out what Lemmy was.

      Exactly. There’s a note that says “Self-promo – Lemmy” right in the posted screen cap.

      Even so, that’s lame behaviour. I understand deleting comments if they are promoting their app nonstop, but to silence people you think are just mentioning an alternative app is crazy.

      Perhaps, although I was pretty clear in that thread that lemmy is a reddit replacement, not an apollo one.
