I recently tried posting a link to an anti-annexation protest event I created, however EhNow (similar to twitter), the site I used to create the event, apparently won't let you view it without being a registered user, which I did not realize. Seems I inadvertently did the most offensive and suspicious thing anyone has ever done, ever, by posting such a link. I was wrong to assume people knew what EhNow is, so here's a video about it.

I post a screenshot of the details of the event. I post a link to this very website for the event instead of EhNow. And you're still suspicious? of what?

Just look up what EhNow is! Its a legit Canadian social media site. There's nothing to be suspicious about. Good lord.

I don't know anything about an app redirect as I only use the internet on a desktop computer, but I am not understanding how that would be "suspect"

the fact that your account was just created yesterday is very suspicious.

Why?

I'm new on the site and that makes me "suspicious?"

Because I posted a link to a protest?

What am I being suspected of, exactly?

Not knowing about Lemmy before yesterday? Crime of the century.

Also, this isn't a work email, it's an internet forum.

I'm genuinely curious what is it that you're so scared of? You think because I posted a link to a Canadian social media site that you're not familiar with, it's like a virus or something?

C'mon man.

Ok, then I guess you meant something different when you said "Sign in not required for decent, community-minded social media to just observe."

Exclusive nature? Company it keeps? I genuinely don't know what you're talking about anymore.

Ehnow is a Canadian social media site similar to twitter. Yeah, it makes you sign up to use it, which I already stated before, that I was not aware of, when I posted. People share pictures, their thoughts, links, videos..., you know, social media. It's not for everyone, I don't even really like social media. I just use it to try and create more awareness about the protest, and because it's a Canadian site. But it's surely not "suspicious." What are you so suspicious about? What background checks? Not like I'm posting some virus link. Like, chill out.

I already conceded, I already said I won't post external links to other websites. I made a community right here on Lemmy. You completely ignored that, and chose to continue harping on me for posting an EhNow link. I only recently found out about Lemmy and EhNow from the Unplug America list and signed up for both because they are Canadian. Hey.cafe too. You not knowing about the existence of websites does not automatically mean such websites are suspicious.

I don't understand what argument you're still trying to make here. You already won. Lemmy is the only site I will ever link to going forward. You should be happy now. No more big bad "suspicious" links that you'll have to do background checks and go through the ordeal of creating a free account. God forbid.

Look I just created the group. I didn't create the website. I genuinely did not know you couldn't view content without logging in, as I already had an account. I realize your opinion is that EhNow is not decent or community minded but we can differ on opinion there, that's fine. Seems no one on Lemmy is interested in using any other website, whether it's Canadian or not, and that's fine too. I went ahead and created a Lemmy community for this, so next time I post about it there will be no external links to any other website.

I ain't crossing that border.

I don't remember saying any of that. Did YOU read what I wrote? Is everyone being my enemy some sort of guess on your part? This kind of stupid shit is exactly why I left reddit. Learn how to have an adult conversation instead of "Oh maybe you're this oh maybe you're that oh you think this and you think that" Go outside.

There. Now you can see it and you don't have to sign up for anything.

Certainly not the nation of criminals. I wish them the most great and tremendous food shortages and subsequent famine. Oh and preventable disease epidemics from vaccine-curable diseases that used to be eradicated.

If you really don't want to sign up for EhNow (which is Canadian), I added a screenshot with the info. EhNow link: https://ehnw.ca/e/s2xmHJqhTU6vvC0uHNFeZw

Edit: Alright people, here's a new link. Don't worry it's not a phishing attack, it's not spam, or whatever other horrific thing you're assuming, you don't have to go through the horror of creating a free account on a Canadian website, it's all right here on Lemmy where you created a free account on a Canadian website. I am simply trying to spread the word about this protest. https://lemmy.ca/c/never51
