I can confirm, but looks like it happens in /r/technology, it didn’t happened in /r/MurderedByWords.
This is how it looks from the account which posted it:

Interesting, thanks!
/r/technology might just have stricter external URLs policies, mentioning to /r/RedditAlternatives was the way to go
Still shocking to me that /r/RedditAlternatives isn’t just one big “USE LEMMY/PIEFED/MBIN” sticky post but on the other hand there are a lot of Fedi-resitant people there so maybe it’s a good thing to give that illusion of choice.
Yes, r/technology removed my links to pixelfed instances, and they unremoved them after I messaged them.
I hate how reddit has so many hidden rules…
Sounds like r/technology has something in their automod config blocking one or more of those links.
I see that someone else made a similar comment replacing piefed.social with piefed dot social

“Different developers but can still access the same content” is a great succinct way of describing it.
Yeah I noticed my comments weren’t getting any votes or replies so I tried opening them in Incognito mode and they didn’t show up. So I had to censor the links like that.
r/technology seems really strict on these links
Might be time to start talking about https://feddit.online/ then!
