The !buyeuropean@feddit.uk community only has @buyeuropean@feddit.org as a mod, but they are literally the last mod in the power order, they havent’ created the community or anything.
There have been several occurrences of /r/BuyFromEU mods removing posts promoting Lemmy as they become too popular, such as this one: https://lemm.ee/post/57883093
Their sidebar still only shows links to their own social media:
investigating the press release? :D what do you mean? questions?
Edit: Oh, I guess that was prior to the discussion yesterday, right? So I guess that’s “investigated”. Hadn’t checked Feddit in a while.
The mods also complained about be posting about those posts here:
Those mods seems to be power tripping and want to only promote their website (https://www.goeuropean.org/), which they seem a bit adamant on promoting (https://old.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1j85af8/a_comprehensive_guide_how_to_rbuyfromeu/), ignoring other alternatives like https://buy-european.net/
See some issue between them and the /r/Buy_European mod: https://old.reddit.com/r/Buy_European/comments/1j6jeg3/the_other_buyeuropean_sub_is_apparently_now/

https://buy-european.net/ points to Lemmy in the footer, and even created a dedicated blog post:

So to summarize its basically 1 website vs the other? We should unite, not divide
Yes, indeed. There’s a similar situation here with !buyeuropean@feddit.uk and !buyfromeu@feddit.org, so it’s just common around this type of initiatives
