I’m sure everyone lately has noticed there’s a tonne of hate on the privacy subreddit, with every new post/comment there getting more and more aggresive than the last
I personally am loving the Lemmy community but I feel as though keeping the piracy subreddit in it’s current state is making users of it quite hostile to change since they believe they are being forced to move
This will honestly make them refuse to ever use Kbin/Lemmy since in their eyes it’s the moderators and users here that have killed r/Piracy (obviously wrong of the stick it’s Reddit that’s killing it’s own communities with it’s policies)
So I guess it’s a question of should we as a community hand over the subreddit to a new moderation team or some other change since I don’t feel like it’s doing us any favours
Hoping to use this post as a sort of discussion about people’s opinions
I just wanna talk about Piracy. I don’t care where and why where.
People who haven’t joined or even tried Lemmy at this point are just close-minded. What stopped them from joining Lemmy during the initial days of blackout, way before all the John Olivier fuckfest? These same users are acting like you can’t use one more site. Probably addicted to Reddit karma.
Reddit will not improve and it will get worse for sure. It’s actually good all of these happened, at least the sub will die at the mods’ hands. Considering Reddit already killed piracy subs like megalinks years ago and slowly banning other piracy subs one by one, the site’s becoming more and more unfitting for piracy discussion and it hasn’t been the most comfortable site for discussing piracy ever since those events. Mods have to impose stricter rules to avoid a ban, at least there’s way more freedom in piracy discussion on Lemmy, just like on Reddit years ago. Reddit will most likely ban all piracy related subs in the next few years, maybe they’ll even pull a Tumblr/Imgur and ban all NSFW subs.
Imma certified piracy lover
Forget about Reddit. The shittier it gets, the better for us. It will also help keep aggressive haters out of Lemmy by accumulating them outside.
I see these users constantly call for the removal of mods. Let them go the way of interestingasfuck, with mods forcefully removed by the admins and it is now desolate and closed to new submissions
Give the people what they want
And yes I will keep talking about reddit because I love drama. Give me better drama to talk about and I will move on
