That's literally impossible! An instance may go down, but it will stay cached.
Okie, I'm absolute noob here. Right now I struggle to find night mode. :D

This should somehow be made known outside the fediverse, to bring more people away from reddit and to here
please do share. I can only spread the word so much.
I reinvited you in case you care.
cheers. Rejoined
Haha what the fuck I really did NOT think they would do that to r/piracy of all things. Ah well fuck them and their shitty IPO. I‘m here with you guys for good, the structure of the fediverse suits our purposes and community better anyway.
I would imagine that can lead to legal troubles endorsing r/piracy willingly?
Accepting it is one thing, but forcing it to open is entirely different.
So basically, according to Reddit, they own everything on Reddit. That means all the the CP, hate speech — and in this case, piracy — that are posted on Reddit are Reddit's responsibility. Bold strategy, cotton. They're basically waiving their net neutrality.

Well I guess its time to flood r/piracy with magnet links as soon as the new jannies open it.
why magnet links in particular?
I mean could be any link to copyright material but I generally grab magnet links so shrug
Also worth flooding them with ~~links~~ a map to where they can board the new ship where the 🏴☠️ flag still flies high.
That was enough to get me to officially sign up here.
Obvious that this is automated and will be going out to all subs. They definitely wouldn't go to bat to keep a piracy sub open, unless they're even dumber than I thought.
automated message, sure. But they demoded just me, which is obviously very exact.
Well, good thing that you prepared well in advance and have already built a nice alternative.
Reddit is done
This could not be any funnier. Please reddit, take legal control of the piracy subreddit, right as you take the experienced mod team out. I'm sure everything will go fantastic.
