r/Piracy is dead, we need to build a huge community here

Rule 1:

Sexy pirate John Oliver artwork ONLY

Now I have been there for around 4-5 months and Reddit just killing piracy over there and making it a rule uploading this bullshit sucks.

It is not really a useful sub anymore, get off.

Yes I will be active on her though. It is the only useful thing now.

AgileBed,

and making it a rule uploading this bullshit sucks

Do you think they just want to troll you?

Have you really not read one of the many stickied posts all over Reddit about the blackout and what the admins are going to do to that website?

solberg,

It’s supposed to suck!

Yeah, that's literally the entire point. If the subs are unusable, site traffic falls, Huffman makes less money and looks worse to the investors, and people find better alternatives like here.

olbaidiablo,

Aaarg!!!

icongnu,

Just the quality of replies and posts here over the old sub, is honestly alone worth the move.

paulie420,

Yes yes yes; I'll join and participate!

PunchEnergy,

I'm afraid to ask, but why John Oliver?

Contend6248, (edited )

He makes Last Week Tonight which is a show with a big reach, Reddit-Mods are essentially pinging him.

He did respond on Twitter with a dump of sexy pictures of him to post.

The show is on pause because of the writers-strike at the moment, so it might take a while for this to be a topic.

Sp00ky94,

I wasn't sure if the writers strike was still happening. Earlier today I did search on YouTube for his segment on the reddit situation to see what he had to say.

PunchEnergy,

Thank you!

I didn't use /r/piracy, but I do read this forum

I've even ventured back to IRC for some things. This Reddit explosion has opened all sorts of old doors for me, it's very refreshing.

solidsnake2085,

The whole John Oliver thing is just awful. Glad to be moving here for good when Sync shuts down.

Maggoty,

Sync is moving to Lemmy!

solidsnake2085,

Yes I'm super excited about it! I'm using Jerboa currently but will start using Sync once it's available.

Contend6248,

This is so great, as a former Sync user, can't wait

    You are more than welcome to hop on and improve the code base yourself or host your own instance.

    Pestilence,

    This project is used to dealing with like 10 users online at once, and now there's literally tens of thousands. Cut them some slack

    Itsme99881,

    Downvoted but idk another social media app that has CONSTANT "Timeouts" on gigabit ethernet except this one.

    Growing pains. There's been like 1000% growth or something ridiculous in the past week. The nature of the fediverse will make it more resilient in the long term and the backend software is rapidly being updated.

    You could also try a different instance, could be too much load on dbzer0's server.

    EDIT: I don't think open hostility towards people having issues with Lemmy is productive. We should be helping people with the issues they're having if we want to grow. There is a learning curve to this.

    Grimpen,

    I agree. Lemmy is not as mature as Mastodon, and federation adds a whole extra layer of complexity. Growing pains are too be expected.

    It's probably a good thing that the early adopters tend to be more technically savvy/tolerant.

    Meanwhile, yarr!

    JTR,

    5th June there was about 58k total users lemmy/kbin combined I think, now there is about 320k if not more

    azron,

    Ich war dabei. Los Piraten!

    @hyperio The great thing is, I don't even have to sign up. I just follow this sub (do you still call it a sub?) from my !

    Ahh, bless the .

    arthur,

    I think is called community now. At least is c/piracy to access !piracy

    rooster_butt,

    You would think that a pirates favorite letter be the r/, but it truly always was the c/.

    FuriousFrodo,

    pirates be at 'SEA' now...

    PsychoticBananaSplit,

    This is a top tier joke and you should be proud of yourself

    penguin_in_suit,

    I regret that all im able to give you is a mere upvote

    icongnu,

    The C is for Crime :3

    thesanewriter,

    It's honestly hilarious Reddit bungled this so badly as to upset everyone. Ah well, at least with this digital piracy community I can rest assured a corporation isn't censoring discourse.

    Oneobi,

    Elon has shown the way to spectacularly self destruct!
