If that fucker thinks they can just chill and wait until we come back crawling, they’ve got another thing coming…
You must log in or # to comment.
Works for me. Not going back to r/
Glad to be here. A shame that other communities don’t do the same.
Yo ho! Yo ho! A pirate’s life for me!
I always liked this one from Peter Pan:
Ohhhh! A pirate’s life is a wonderful life
A-rovin’ over the sea
Give me a career as a buccaneer
As the life of a pirate for me
Ohhhh! The life of a pirate for me
Ohhhh! A pirate’s life is a wonderful life
They never bury your bones
For when it’s all over, a jolly sea rover
Drops in on his friend Davy Jones
Ohhhh! His very good friend Davy Jones
Ohh, a pirate’s life is a wonderful life
You’ll find adventure and sport
But live every minute for all that is in it
The life of a pirate is short
Ohh, the life of a pirate is short
Ohh, a pirate’s life is a wonderful life
Without a care to behold
You carry a gun and a jug of rum
And your pockets are loaded with gold
Oh! Your pockets are loaded with gold
Ohh, a pirate’s life is a wonderful life
“But not forever,” they say
When your neck’s in a noose and you can’t get loose
For the life of a pirate you’ll pay
Ohh, the life of a pirate you’ll pay
Ohh, a pirate’s life is a wonderful life
Without a care to behold
You dig for pleasure to find some treasure
Your pockets are loaded with gold
Oh! Your pockets are loaded with gold
Lol nice.
Great to see that some subreddits are going dark indefinitely, don’t let them win!
Full support. Just migrated from Reddit. Not going back until policy changes
Not even then.
For me the Lemmyverse fills the same space. Like Usenet back in the Before Time. Even if Reddit were to do a complete 180/mea culpa I would no longer have a need for them, and the longer it goes on the more users will be comfortable here.
Agreed, it seems like if Lemmy improved their mod tools this will be even better than reddit. I was starting to feel doom whenever going on reddit and lemmy and the fediverse feels more like the community I wanted reddit to be.
Would be cool if we could get a decent app for Android too but TBH I’m not complaining.
Honestly, opportunity abounds. During great change is when money is made. Someone could easily make a quality app, put it on the stores for $1 or $2 to support their work, and it would be worth it.
Have you checked out Jerboa?
Agreed. We’re here. No need to go back to Reddit anytime soon. Or ever if the enshitification continues.
100%. It appears to me this new community is already serving the purpose of the old one!
spez tryna gaslight his staff into thinking we are frustrated with low-level staff lmao
Just subscribed here and want to say I completely support you doing an indefinite blackout.
Nice, fuck spez, the users are the ones with all the power.
I mean blacking out forever should be what r/piracy is doing. If r/piracy reopens, then the admins are more incentivised to ban it, whereas if it remains private, we can still have the description up to redirect visitors to this lemmy, and since the subreddit is private, admins couldn’t care less about it since there is no legitimate DMCA claims for a privated subreddit. They might still eventually ban it, but being private will put the act of banning r/piracy into a lower priority, so the lemmy redirect lasts longer.
And if they forcefully reopen it , it looks like they endorse it…not good for the ipo
If it stays private for long someone could try to r/redditrequest it
Interesting point, but I don’t they admins care about rules anymore. They just do whatever they feel like. Sure they can give it to someone else, then what? Change the description to “Piracy is Bad”? Thats the same as getting banned. The way I see it, r/piracy is getting banned sooner or later, but privating it will make us less of a priority to admins and its giving us more time to recuit people.
Pirates showing subs like r/labrats how it’s done! Drink up me hearties!
Been asking for an indefinite blackout, glad to see this has become reality!
Sounds good to me. The people participating in piracy are the type to quickly adapt to changing technology. Let’s embrace this opportunity.
hell yeah!
Well, I hope this means that all those who followed this subreddit will come over here because, in the end, if Lemmy provides enough content to be a Reddit successor, it will succeed but, if it becomes a mere shadow of what was available there, it’ll fade away just like some of the “Twitter replacement” platforms have.
