Popular gaming subreddits including r/SteamDeck, r/MonsterHunter, and others are enacting bans on posts linking to X, spurred by increasing dissatisfaction with the platform under Elon Musk’s ownership. The movement reflects broader concerns about X's moderation and rising toxicity, with many subreddit members supporting the ban amid worries about hateful content. While some subreddits allow certain types of posts like screenshots, others impose stricter bans. Rationale for these actions often points to Musk's behavior and political events that have intensified the debate around content linked from X.
This is something that we've been contemplating for a little while now. X has become increasingly hateful, toxic and less and less moderated.
A combination of recent political events and X's declining reliability as a news source contributed to its decision.
Users on r/MagicTCG were overwhelmingly in favor of a ban due to Nazi behavior from the owner.
Many cite Elon Musk's recent actions as the primary motivation for the bans on linking to X.
