Knowledge Sharing Seeking connections will result in bans

Seeking connections compromises the safety of sub members and the level of it is insulting to anyone wanting to make quality contributions. Trying to evade it with an otherwise ok post also isn’t acceptable. Spamming comments begging for DMs is annoying for decent members and mods to constantly be deleting.

The mod team has tried to be nice about it and exercise discretion, but we aren’t a dating or friendship sub. We are a safe space for Algerian ex Muslims. Anyone seeking connections or DMing other members will be banned. Finito.

It's ironic how you're moderating a subreddit about a country you don't even live in, while enforcing rules that silence the very people this community is supposed to support. Other ex-Muslim spaces around the world manage to foster real connection including Discord servers without infantilizing their members or playing savior. But here, you’ve taken it upon yourself to decide what’s "safe" for everyone, as if you know better than the people actually living through it. This isn’t moderation it’s gatekeeping disguised as care.

The funny thing is both of you are right and wrong.

It is tough to run such a subreddit while you know the consequences that could happen to a naive member then you would feel guilty for his dreadful fate.
