The top mod of r/piracy has been removed by the admins and the subreddit will reopen.
Ex-captain here. AMA.
Why of course we’re already in the fediverse. !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Is the entire mod team still with you? Or did a mod (or several) bow to Reddit?
Any hope of getting a post or message on the sub now to inform subscribers to also check out the new fediverse home?
Any plans to try and move archival content from the sub to the new home?

man lemmy really has to come up with an easier way to handle other instances within the fediverse.
Yup, I made a browser extension for this, but I’m sure at some point it will be handled natively
Do you have any plans to rally the community of r/piracy to come over as an act of rebellion, to raise down the former r/piracy subreddit in a flood of comments and bots in a show of protests - or tis the act done? Onward and upward from here, no looking back.
effectively we’ve already rallied the /r/piracy community to come here. We’re all in https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy
something about this is hilariously ironic, given how much reddit cracked down on various piracy subreddits.
For sure. They just banned /NewYuzuPriacy 3 days ago for example.
The only thing that makes sense to me is that they sent an automated message to all the private subs over a certain threshold. And it looks like some scab submod decided to mutiny and take the sub.
r/pics was forced to reopen but they complied maliciously by limiting themselves to pics of John Oliver. If there are any sympathetic mods left, maybe r/piracy could be limited to pictures of pirates? I deleted both of my reddit accounts so I wouldn’t be able to vote if there was a poll.
I’m still on reddit due to following subs that has very little chance to move here. If there are any hilarious poll like the one on r/pics, I will gladly help to make the result as hilarious as possible… lol…
I mean I know there are bigger issues at play here, but can’t help saying: Ewww…i forgot how gross it is when not using old.reddit.com.
