Not sure if it's the mods or Reddit. I used to link to it quite a lot, so maybe that raised an alert to the admins

It must mean itโ€™s making a difference, to the point where someone is trying to censor it.

Reddit has the real numbers about human active users.

At this point they must notice a drop due to all the automated bans, and must fear thar people will notice too and look for an alternative

Linking to another Reddit post or comment is a single point of failure. Link to an external site/blog, and maybe use url shorteners if direct links get auto-modded. Linking to Lemmy directly will probably get auto-modded too.

Remember, Reddit is a part of the fascist propaganda machine, so don't expect too much.

I am well aware, but the Reddit posts had a lot of upvotes and positive comments, so it appeared more trustful to Reddit users potentially interested in joining Lemmy.

If you have a blog, feel free to host that post over there, I would then link to it.

Wishful thinking.
