  • Yeah. Also I remember when loveforlandlords went from a shitpost sub for making memes about landlords from the perspective of the landlords to a cringe sub about non-jokingly hating on landlords because some degenerate couldn’t fathom the existence of such a sub, even tho there’s a sub for serious hating on landlords already. He became the main mod, kicked everybody else and the others made loveforlandchads instead

    Just like this, Reddit kicked DB0 and he made the Lemmy server




  • Reddit staff wants to bring down stuff like piracy subs, they want you to break the rules en masse so they can shut it down. Sure we can say “oh boo hoo we have Lemmy” but how many people don’t? How many people won’t bother with Lemmy? How many don’t know about it? How many people will DL from Steamunlocked? How many will torrent from the Bay using Bitlord? The Megatgread is still crucial info that needs to be accessible to as many people as possible

    If you read the Megathread piracy will be second nature but if you don’t and then get malware after malware, at some point you’ll say “fuck it” and stop, which will deter a lot of people
