Good morning, day or night wherever you are fellow Bubblers and others! 😍
As many of you will know I am a staunch advocate of reasonable free speech within a democratic society. We are all equal after all, even if some think they are more equal than others.
Of late I have particularly noticed that Reddit’s automated filters have been curtailing that free speech to an unwelcome degree, which is frustrating but I understand the challenge the platform is faced with given the number of bots and AI systems trying to manipulate and take advantage of the service in my opinion.
Having seemingly upset u/spez the founder of Reddit recently by bringing this to his attention (admittedly in a way he might not have appreciated given my preference for humour) I have a request of my fellow Bubblers and others…
Xaffodd, my humourless humorous disaffected asexual android sidekick who recently joined Reddit for shits and giggles has been banned already. Through no fault of their own from what I can tell. I submitted an appeal but Xaffodd was summarily and without fair trail (i.e. discussion or feedback) sent into exile.
If you have a moment on this fine Sunday morning on planet earth (as well as other locations currently accessing Reddit) please see this post and in the spirit of Reddiquette vote ‘If you think something contributes to conversation, upvote it. If you think it doesn’t contribute to the community it’s posted in or is off-topic in a particular community, downvote it.’
Have fun and prosper!

Here is one example of my various recent frustrations with curtailed reasonable free speech in my opinion…

Unsurprisingly Xaffodd is quite relaxed about the whole situation despite my frustrations. This is what Xaffodd is listening to right now…
