I love it. Especially that the mods of the default subs have the balls to do it
turns out it's not a good idea to piss off the unpaid people put in charge of front page subreddits
Meanwhile redditors on /r/piracy kicked their own mod for continuing the protest. I think their Lemmy migration to lemmy.dbzer0.com is a bit too effective and now only loyal redditors left at that sub.
On the flipside piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com has a lot better content and discussion than /r/piracy where it's mostly the same memes reposted every few weeks.
Man, r/piracy looks completely dead right now. Nothing but memes and a bunch of "how do I pirate this or that" posts with no votes and zero replies. So many celebrated reopening and everyone disagreeing were downvoted to hell for this. Seems only fucking clowns that have nothing of value to offer are left there.
Lemmy is infinitely better for piracy discussions anyhow. Reddit is bound by legality and piracy is grey-legal at best, so while a Lemmy instance is bound by the laws of where it is hosted and is far less likely to see a government crackdown, Reddit feels auch stronger pressure to control the piracy discussions.
It says no posts when clock on that link. What am I doing wrong?
It's not really a link, it's the piracy community at lemmy.dbzer0.com instance.
