    Incredible to see so many Huffman’s simps in the comments, no wonder why the blackouts weren’t that effective

      It just means most of the people with principles have already moved here, or that reddit is engaging in disgusting levels of astroturfing. The latest Announcement is even worse. Regardless, it’s just ruined.

        Pirates crying and simping for reddit are truly the dumbest thinking piracy dedicated communities have a future on a company trying to artificially inflate their value so they can sell it off to other investors. Probably don’t even use any sort of adblock.

    Yea, I’m gonna stay on Lemmy. It’s not as engaging, but that’s a good thing - less time spent on social media is always better.

    I would prefer lemmy, you are free from all the reddit shenanigans, plus if there’s any problems we could make our own server and still stay here, much more reasonable

      That’d get the sub banned too quickly. We have to resist, but not make it too obvious. A reasonable person would’ve seen the fallback site and move here, but if we make things too obvious, we’ll not have the sub to act as a redirect to here.

    I’m still confused why they forcefully reopen a subreddit about PIRACY? 🤔🤔🤔 Shouldn’t they actually be glad that it closed?

          Me neither but im definitely on it a lot less, for example right now im browsing lemmy just checking out stuff whats on here etc. Normally i would be doing the same but on reddit, i still do that but a lot less which means less traffic.

              Better do it soon, I just did mine the other day. I really didn’t want to do it cause it kind of screws over people searching for answers from Google but fuck Reddit

    Let Reddit die, they’ve monetized our content and then spit at our faces, especially at the mods.

    Please create a decentralized harbor to share piracy related content. Dont visit this site again.

      Since the blackout, I’ve only visited Reddit to rip off content for my own Lemmy community, and to vote in this poll lol

    I don’t get the reasoning behind the poll. If the admins don’t allow to shut r/piracy down then just post links to pirated material. It’s closed.

    Wasn’t this sub in danger of being closed a few years ago? So let them.

      Exactly. Imagine not respecting others’ copyrights, I would never damage reddit’s reputation by doing such a thing there!

    Here’s a few I made with Stable Diffusion

    Prompt: sexy pose, John Oliver as a pirate
    Negative prompt: penis
    Model: Virile Fusion

    I can make more if people want, potentially full-on pornographic, but, uh, I’m not sure that’s a good idea without his say so!

      Oh dear, for my own entertainment I tried “John Oliver as a pirate, fucking a hot twink”, and got… John Oliver as a hot twink fucking John Oliver as a hot twink, or in one case, connected at the penis to same!

    I hope that all the major subs will also take this decision.

    Wow, that was my first time back on reddit since all this happened, and even though it was for good, I still feel a bit… unclean. Like I helped them out by sending traffic their way

    I love the Malicious Compliance from the moderators lately, and the fact John Oliver is just becoming the ultimate meme symbol for the movement and protest.
