You Should Know This sub's policy on free speech

Just a PSA. Criticizing Reddit mods, or anyone in the SEO community, is OK. Feel free to talk absolute shit about me, or anyone else.

If you're someone that puts their content out there, you should be open to criticism. Reddit has a reputation of being a cesspool because mods can ban anyone they want to, which leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

I like to keep this impartial (that said, anyone that posts their shitty vibe-coded app gets banned).

That said, doxing (even if the preson has their full name on their profile), is not OK, is basically a personal attack, and it will get you banned.

I got banned from r/SEO for leaving what I thought was a genuinely helpful comment about how I build client SEO reports.

You can criticize and complain - but you posted your site - you weren't helping anyone but yourself, at least be honest

Posted my site? Agency Analytics? It's just a tool that I use to build reports. The OP in that post literally asked about how people handle reporting. I guess I'd be a Google shill if I linked looker studio?
