Overview
- McCartney’s Reddit profile, which showed as banned Monday, is now active after Reddit told users a site bug created the appearance of a suspension.
- The original r/PaulMcCartney thread is still gone and now reads as deleted by the poster, and a subreddit moderator said that wording means neither community mods nor routine filters removed it.
- Following Friday and Saturday’s phone-free shows at LA’s Fonda Theatre, the account shared a Dropbox link with photos and videos and asked fans to use the hashtag #PaulRocksTheFonda.
- Before Reddit’s bug explanation, outlets and users guessed an automated spam check flagged the Dropbox link or that the long-dormant, team-run account tripped verification rules.
- Coverage noted the shared folder held mostly rehearsal and arrival shots with only one image from the performance, underscoring how artists try to fill the media gap after no-phone gigs.
