There’s only one choice here…
Incredible to see so many Huffman’s simps in the comments, no wonder why the blackouts weren’t that effective
It just means most of the people with principles have already moved here, or that reddit is engaging in disgusting levels of astroturfing. The latest Announcement is even worse. Regardless, it’s just ruined.
Pirates crying and simping for reddit are truly the dumbest thinking piracy dedicated communities have a future on a company trying to artificially inflate their value so they can sell it off to other investors. Probably don’t even use any sort of adblock.
I guess it’s for the best that those astroturfing people stay on Reddit while we can enjoy the Lemmy-verse.
Instead of John Oliver, every post must include a link to this site (lemmy).
That’d get the sub banned too quickly. We have to resist, but not make it too obvious. A reasonable person would’ve seen the fallback site and move here, but if we make things too obvious, we’ll not have the sub to act as a redirect to here.
ooh like that idea!!
Let Reddit die, they’ve monetized our content and then spit at our faces, especially at the mods.
Please create a decentralized harbor to share piracy related content. Dont visit this site again.
Since the blackout, I’ve only visited Reddit to rip off content for my own Lemmy community, and to vote in this poll lol
Aw yiss. You know what’s cookin’?
Fucking hell that T shirt with Abs lol overall it looks pretty awesome but also comical.
is this stable diffusion ? and if yes which model?
Yes and Deliberate, but I’m using Loras as well
John Oliver so sexy you don’t even have to ask the AI to make him so …
I’m done with Reddit. This latest debacle prompted me to look into Reddit’s history, had no idea before. What an awful company. Also a community not subject to corporate interest is better for everyone. Anyway, I’m not going back there so if the sub gets closed down, no skin off my nose. Yeah do what you will.
Same here Lemmy has been more than enough for me, a little harder to search but the curated feeds are perfect
I don’t get the reasoning behind the poll. If the admins don’t allow to shut r/piracy down then just post links to pirated material. It’s closed.
Wasn’t this sub in danger of being closed a few years ago? So let them.
I’m still confused why they forcefully reopen a subreddit about PIRACY? 🤔🤔🤔 Shouldn’t they actually be glad that it closed?
Because they know people will actually leave reddit if it’s closed
and we did
I didn’t leave because the subs are private
Me neither but im definitely on it a lot less, for example right now im browsing lemmy just checking out stuff whats on here etc. Normally i would be doing the same but on reddit, i still do that but a lot less which means less traffic.
I bailed as soon as the blackout happened. I’m over it. I’ll go back but only to rewrite my history.
Better do it soon, I just did mine the other day. I really didn’t want to do it cause it kind of screws over people searching for answers from Google but fuck Reddit
deleted by creator
I vote for our Lord John Oliver
Yea, I’m gonna stay on Lemmy. It’s not as engaging, but that’s a good thing - less time spent on social media is always better.
I deleted my accounts and refuse to click Reddit links, so I can‘t vote or even see it, but I hope whatever option is most annoying to the admins wins.
Options are:
Upvote this comment if you want r/Piracy to allow sexy pirate John Oliver posts only at reopening.
Upvote this comment if you want r/Piracy to return to normal operations at reopening.
Scores are hidden, so there’s no way to see which is winning yet. However, every sub that’s done something similar so far has come out John Oliver themed.
Well Option 2 is a stinker, easy choice for anyone who isn‘t a spez sockpuppet.
I’m just looking forward to the funny John Oliver edits hitting lemmy and maybe an episode on enshittification of corporate social media.
Just close the sub and make it full link through to this page. 1 link, explain why you’ve closed and link this Lemmy. Cut your losses & gtfo
That won’t work. That’s what we originally did and they demodded me to reopen it
What about turning piracy into a porn sub only allowing submissions of pirate themed porn. Seems like the best malicious compliance with how advertisers don’t really like to be associated with porn.
were you the only mod? or are there other people that are still involved that could help. i didn’t really pay attention to the mod list
he was the top mod they would simply demote people or put a super mod in till they are pleased.
He was top mod
the captain of our ship!
keep it open, add automod(if those will even be possible) explaining the situation in every post linking alternatives.
In case you don’t know how to find some relevant pictures to post, have I got just the tool for you!

Simply talk to my mastodon bot like this, or my reddit bot like this (You can summon the reddit bot from anywhere in reddit btw)
Alternatively, just use a dedicated client like Lucid Creations or ArtBot and make up your own style
I would prefer lemmy, you are free from all the reddit shenanigans, plus if there’s any problems we could make our own server and still stay here, much more reasonable
Close it, before they use it up and close it themselves when they want to improve shareholder relations or some nonsense.
