All the principled pirates have jumped ship to lemmy so it was bound to happen sooner than later.

I thought I wasn’t gonna give a shit about this, but it was quite enjoyable. Too bad, so sad! Looks like that guy’s discord is now well known for the wrong reasons…

Never assume you are asking some upper crust, high minded group.

Welcome to Lemmy Reddit pirates, you should have come earlier.

Least controversial day on Reddit.

Out of curiosity, is our megathread the same as theirs? If so, it might be time to make our own independently of theirs.

So we aren't using an unauthorised copy?

I honestly see no reason to use Reddit for its Piracy Megathread. Lemmy’s user base is much more friendly, helpful and the Megathread here is the same (if not better) organized than there.

Not only that, I remember there was quite some problems among the mods on Reddit. So I’m not surprised something like this happened. Once there’s a slight fracture, it’ll slowly but steadily get broken into pieces entirely.

I don’t see much decent content on both Piracy and PiratedGames subreddit anyway. Majority is memes, ‘is this safe’ and spam posts about empress.

The megathread is here if anyone is wondering

The fact that even happened tbh is insane tbh, but I’m so glad that people are now jumping ship tbh esp what the dumb decisions Reddit has made in the past couple of years.
