Piracy mods are few of the mods with a backbone that actually left reddit because of all the bullshit.

They probably realized the same skillset that set up their *arr config could be used to host a lemmy instance

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 27 points 9 months ago

I mean, even a lot of the bigger lemmy instances are of mixed thought on whether to federate with "piracy" instances (I want to say lemmy.world federated and defederated a couple times?).

Reddit Corporate is trying to go public. The piracy subs were going to be purged sooner than later and The Exodus was an opportunity to move the community en masse.

AFAIK, lemmy.world only blocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com community, not the whole instance, and unblocked it a few months afterwards.

If I had to guess ;)

Seems about right

A lot of the sports sub mods I frequent put up a hard fight and many just walked away. The change in those communities has been noticable. Especially since they can no longer use API to import clips as they happen, engagement and content is way down. There used to be highlights for days, just automatically.

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Oh I didn't even think of the auto content that could be generated with the API

Shout-out to the /r/Sysadmin mods who decided subreddit uptime was too important to partake in the blackout. Man that place just had a really toxic tone and really made me strongly want to avoid the Sysadmin career track

You have probably already seen this:

Anyway, people are mostly not like that anymore.

At least here I don’t have to read /u/crankysysadmin telling everyone they’re entitled and need to do better work and ignore their personal problems in every thread

It was pretty funny when push came to shove and they all pulled their heads in. "Well if I don't do what they're saying they might remove me so I have to do what they say for the good of the community". That's.... not how that works.
