More communities are considering blocking links to Musk's platfrom.
Performing two Nazi-like salutes may have won Elon Musk some fans over in the dark corners of the internet, but odds are low that his supporters on BitChute and Rumble will be able to make up for the traffic that X is about to lose. In the wake of Musk’s “I give my heart to you” gesture that looked an awful lot like a Sieg Heil salute, a number of large subreddits on Reddit are banning links to X.
Sports communities, too, are taking steps to prevent X links from being shared. The subreddit for Formula One racing fans,are considering following suit, which is a pretty big deal given that so much of sports content is driven by reports that originate on Twitter. While the subreddit moderators and community members have seemed to decide that if it looks like a duck, talks like a duck, and passionately does the goose step twice in front of a large audience, then you can safely assume that it is what you think it is.
