The /r/piracy link to lemmy /c/piracy hit the reddit frontpage with 7K+ updoots!
-
Announcement stands at a high number of downvotes. The people have spoken, the admins did not listen.
I don't think I've ever seen any other post with 2000 downvotes and -1000 overall score. Those numbers are really big. But at the same time LW has way too many users and communities on them so I can understand them not wanting to play legal games on top of that regardless of factuality. It's a free platform and changing instances is easy (as long you don't have communities to move).

Welcome! If you have any questions about the fediverse or piracy in general, feel free to post or shoot the community some questions in this thread. We're glad you made the switch!!!

That'll teach em! You can't just sign up, first you gotta read some 20 minute long post from gnu.org

46K active users is nothing to sneeze at. Most old school forums were hella active with just 1K
It has felt GREAT at lemmy. Lot of content and great discussions. We don't NEED more people. Yes, more people bring more diversity and that will help a lot. The one downside for lemmy is that it doesn't have all the niche groups that reddit does but that takea time. Lemmy is maturing amazingly imo.

:motions at trillions of times people that signed up for Fb, Ig, Twit, TkTk, etc/everything without reading the Terms of Service:

I tried to join dbzer0 and got rejected without any reason—did I pick the wrong pirate (I liked Rackham on Black Sails)
Excellent pirate choice!

Yeah that and the stance towards thre*ds was what showed me that I don't want be live on .world.

It should probably the default suggestion or selection now.

Welcome to Lemmy.ca! You chose well, we've got a pretty good admin team here.

It's a bit of a mixed experience. Overall, federation has its benefits, but it also tends to encourage cliquish behavior among groups. Sometimes, entire servers get blacklisted for various reasons. Reddit has a lot of corners that don't violate its current ToS, but in federation, ToS isn’t usually about pleasing the most people and pulling them into your platform, it's more about the ideals of your server admin team. That’s a good thing, I suppose. It’ll be interesting to see how things play out with Lemmy federations when Reddit bans porn.

Especially as many Lemmy instances don't want to host or moderate NSFW content. I don't blame them, but I'm also doubtful pornlemmy could handle the load (pun intended).

Having looked at the NSFW Lemmy instance I 100% expect the Reddit refugees will try to host their own instances. Some of them. I also expect them to be defederated pretty quickly.

That non stacking thing annoys the piss out of me haha. It's such a small thing and it's deliberate to make the tin look bigger but it just means they're taking up more space in the cupboard for lack of stacking or falling over if you do.
Also not a huge Heinz fan. Like they're not bad don't get me wrong but definitely agree on the watery-ness.
The most popular one here is probably Bachelor's which has a thicker, richer sauce though I'm fond enough of the Lidl own brand one. That is definitely partly down to price. They're ridiculously cheap and very decent with a fry especially if you warm them slowly to soften them.

That was a very helpful post, so I could make sure I was subscribed to all three communities listed and not just this one, lol.

And like switching Linux distros, switching Lemmy instances means losing everything unless you have an external backup.

If I had to read a 20 minute post just to doomscroll Elon and Linux, I’d just stick to Reddit. Whatever nefarious stuff they’re doing isn’t more valuable than 20 minutes of my real world time.

When it comes to things I don’t want to read during my lunch break, yes.

I'm not sure if you are trolling. 20 minutes is a random number we pick up it probably take even less and 20 minutes is not really much time, we waste more time doing more useless things

I was accepted, and my pick was Jean Lafitte. High seas pirates are allowed but maybe because I picked a real one and you picked a character! Try again.

This makes me want to switch but I'm ride or die Sync. I just manually look up the account age when I see someone spewing absolute bullshit. That icon would be helpful! How long does it last?
