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.

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@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

It’s supposed to suck!

[-] Snowpix@yiffit.net 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Kettlepants@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Active on her? She's a lucky lady 😂

[-] icongnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

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

[-] sternail@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Reddit is probably going to be happy about the protest in this sub. Can't imagine that investors like the sub about getting stuff for free...

[-] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I mean, the sub was closed and Reddit forced it to reopen, so there is an argument they do endorse piracy

[-] thesanewriter@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

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.

Elon has shown the way to spectacularly self destruct!

[-] MrComradeTaco@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Let's do it then

[-] fell@ma.fellr.net 1 points 1 year ago

@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 #Mastodon!

Ahh, bless the #Fediverse.

I think is called community now. At least is c/piracy to access !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[-] rooster_butt@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

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

[-] FuriousFrodo@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

pirates be at 'SEA' now...

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

[-] icongnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone -2 points 1 year ago

The C is for Crime :3

[-] paulie420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes yes yes; I'll join and participate!

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

[-] Contend6248@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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.

It won't be the same without RARBG. 😭

i still miss isohunt and mininova

[-] kronicmage@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Wow haven't heard those names in ages

[-] webghost0101@lemmy.fmhy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

Quick question, how does this piracy community compare with fmhy?

Fmhy are just providers of the instance and that's what their general communities focus on. For information regarding the high seas, this is the community you want to look into.

[-] darkstar@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago

No actually fmhy is technically a "competitor" to this community if you want to call it that. I personally think fmhy has a better megathread than this one due to it being updated much more frequently, but essentially both communities are similar.

[-] Poiar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Either one community will become big and the other small.

Or, the two communities will start going into niches (like, one being more focused on movies and the other games)

And seeing as you can subscribe to both, I assume that these communities will assist each other.

The strength of federation is that you have no "one-true-community" anymore. If one gets sick (I.e. Reddit) you have other safe havens to take over

[-] Zuberi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Steer clear of the propaganda pit that is kbin imo

[-] solidsnake2085@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

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

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

That's kinda the point of the John Oliver thing
