The /r/piracy link to lemmy /c/piracy hit the reddit frontpage with 7K+ updoots!

I don't think defed has been that bad, and I think over time we'll get more features to avoid having to defed (aside from illegal content or spam).
Like users being able to block users and/or communities by instance, or admins being able to set default block lists for new users, or users being able to easily share block lists.

Who is 'lemmy' though. Without someone making money there is no motivation to do that.
All of the biggest instances could take turns running ads for themselves lol

All that does is cost them money for the adds, then increase their running costs by adding users.
It's good for the community, but not great for them.

Oh good. It was just mass spamming. I was very confused when I got that same message from 3 different accounts, but it was the same message with the same links. I thought I was being targeted.
Yeah I got a whole bunch for whatever reason.

Teach them about beans.
And jeans

reddit actually defended the piracy subreddit? lmao
Yep. I made a point to troll then with that at the time.

Sadly /c/piracy is blocked from .world I think.

Later on there was drama because they blocked it a second time anyway. xD

I thought Heinz was the gold standard in the UK. I must try the Branston ones. Flippin' love that pickle.
Don't think I've ever seen them in the supermarket in Ireland but my sister's visiting from the UK on Sunday so I think I'll place an order.

to the new users:
Ahoy, maties
Arrrr! Welcome aboard, ye scallywags!

No love for jetbrains?
It's still commercial, proprietary software

Announcement stands at a high number of downvotes. The people have spoken, the admins did not listen.

Tell me one single instance of .would admins not just copying reddit in terms of being a shit instance.

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 reasonโdid I pick the wrong pirate (I liked Rackham on Black Sails)
Excellent pirate choice!
