r/Piracy probably needs a rethink (lemmy.world)

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

That's baffling you? The majority of resources are on reddit right now and - unfortunately - people don't care to move elsewhere. They just want their links and answers to questions that have been asked and answered 10,000 times and that's it.

Again: Unfortunately.

I think that's the point, the people who care about things like the API changes have already made the migration, the rest of the losers stuck there in rubbit don't matter to us, and as other posters noted this is likely the group of people is productive. Who cares. Leave them behind.

Not sure what this vast collection of resources is that you're pining over. Theeye, among the vast majority of actual piracy resources, were never really on rubbit anyway.....

Not sure what this vast collection of resources is that you’re pining over.

In that case, I was talking about Plebbit as a whole. Many search results for interesting queries still lead to Reddit.
