Since we are not on Reddit and out of the tentacles of DMCA, can we freely paste safe-to-share pirated links without any obfuscation and hints?

You can share as long as you keep one degree of separation. Prefer base64 links

I don’t think we’re technically out of DMCA. Instance owners are still responsible for the content on their servers (if they receive a DMCA takedown request), at least in the US.

This. All laws still apply. Still gotta tip-toe to be on the safe side and CYA.

To not scare any other instances from defederalization and for the piracy to reach as broadly as it can, we need to be within all “legal” limits. The subreddit survived for so long (and is now desired by reddit themselves? Lol) because our incredible mods kept it so. So let’s continue with that trend here. Rule 3 also makes us all better pirates in the long run.

Make base64 code and it should be fine, I think the maker of this instance said magnet links are fine too and general looks to websites just not directly to the content as in fit girls page would be fine just not anything on it.

But I bet they will comment at some point

DMCA is a legal thing, not a reddit thing. so it still applies. iirc the rule here is 1 degree of separation or obfuscated links.
