Aaaand it's gone, and I've been banned from the sub.

got 80,000 views and 1300 upvotes before is disappeared though, so I see that as a win, I'm sure a few people signed up.

To be fair, I was spamming should have read the rules better, a warning would have been nice.

No… you are doing an amazing job. Like that’s wild and absolutely phenomenal!

I suspect it wouldn't matter if you posted it once or posted it a hundred times. Lemmy is a rival service, and plenty of people have been banned for mentioning it before.

I think you should contact the moderation team. I'd be really curious to hear what they have to say is "excessive" about you informing people of EU-based alternatives to Reddit...

If nothing else it'll be a good laugh here on fedi.

Banned from r/BuyFomEU due to excessive promotion...

How are people supposed to behave on that sub?

"excessive promotion", right.

You're doing great work.

Really? I was able to comment a couple of minutes ago.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 hours ago

I still see Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/BuyFromEU.

You can comment but I think it's just "Hidden" idk

Seems like an odd sub to promote Lemmy in.

They were likely posting about the BuyFromEU Lemmy community.
