Libreddit mirror, don't give reddit clicks

It's really weird to see a subreddit devoted to piracy full of people who really, really don't like the idea of sticking it to this company.

I can't read comments over there anymore, they've become some of the biggest bootlickers on the site. Moving to Lemmy was a very effective way to filter out all the dipshits.

I am really disappointed in the current Reddit r/Piracy community. Reddit is horrendous, but seems like that community is extremely ignorant about the actual condition. They don't deserve any of the good things.

Fuck reddit

I mean r/piracy is running on borrowed time, might as well use its last moments as a redirect.

r/piracy is probably on borrowed time. Might as well return it to normal and wait for it to inevitably be banned. By then, Lemmy should hopefully be more polished.

To be very blunt, it's best to leave Reddit. Within a year or two, discussing piracy itself would be banned there.

Yarrr. Even pirates have principles.

At this point I no longer care. I yet haven’t uninstalled Apollo and Boost out of respect for the developers but haven’t used them in 3 weeks. Come the 30th I will uninstall them and that is it. I will continue tu use Reddit as a search clutch while it works but will only get my fix of news either here or via rss feed as I used to do prior to Reddit.

Ribbits

The protesting should go on, but it's 1.7k against 3.1k who want to open fully if I remember corrently.I bit the bullet and went into the poll comments as well. Clown comment section ~ 95%. I am sad and disgusted. I'm happy they are over there and not here. Ironically it convinced me to never step foot back in there.

I don‘t even think it‘s worth it for me to go and vote, just gives spez a click he doesn‘t deserve. Maybe best for me to leave it up to those who still give a shit about Reddit to decide what they want to do with their platform. As long as this instance is up, I‘m good! Ty db0!

The comments are spicy, the mods are hated there.

I would say let the people who want to stay on reddit have it. This protest was the best thing that could have happened to /r/piracy, because now there is this place with 17k subscribers. I know there was another backup before this, but I don't think it was this popular. And if reddit will go public there is a good chance that that subreddit will be banned or quarantined and at that point it would have been hard to spread information about something like this place.

r/piracy is living on borrowed time. Let’s leave on our own terms for once!

Disappointing that 2/3 of the remaining users seem to vote for reopening.

So disappointed at the poll results

Hell yeah, it got alot of people to Lemmy.

I'm very curious how reddit will handle it; they would probably hesitate openly supporting a piracy sub by putting in new mods

Pirates don't protest when the ship is sinking. They commandeer another ship and use that one.

Can someone relay the outcome of the poll? I can't see it without an account and without voting

Well, the sub had gone downhill recently anyway - endless memes or posts about 'what is seeding' 'what is a vpn' 'what is plex' or just idiots who got an ISP notice and think it means they are going to jail.

I say stay closed. Keep up the protest!

I don't care because I don't even use reddit

Yes!!! I got lemmy becausd of subs still protesting!! Keep it downnnnn

I think people on r/piracy need to see the writing on the wall. Reddit is getting rid of 3rd party clients, is obviously not happy with large subs swapping to NSFW content and is trying to push for things to be as advertiser friendly as possible

At some point they're going to go after piracy subs more aggressively which is probably why it's better to make the switch earlier rather than later

I see a lot of comments there saying when that happens "they'll just make a new sub" missing the fact once Reddit starts banning piracy users/subs the new ones that spring up in its place will only last a week or two before being banned again
