I see more and more (I assume young) people that are bootlickers on r/piracy that I'm wondering the following.

IF, the real productive people, like the mods on that sub like db0 for example, come here, and there is still people there is it really important to have a sub there?

You see, if there is no productive conversation going on that sub, because the people who are productive came here, that sub will die off, but slowly.

At least we got rid of the bootlickers, right? Also, as always piracy always gets banned, if a site gets too big, too mainstream. r/piracy was mainstream. It's better if that sub is the frontpage of piracy, but the real important things are happening here.

My request for the mods: Next time, when there is a need for an update of the megathread, don't update there. No need. Just do it here. It helps lemmy more that way.

If you're like me you don't give a single shit about the whole Reddit - Lemmy discourse and you only care about freedom of speech and discussing online piracy, which is more than just free videogames.

Grow up, don't pick fights and seed.

I think it's important to care about the fact that Reddit and especially it's users are being squeezed dry by a profit-hungry CEO with a net worth of already more than 10 million. Reddit is becoming bastardized and that's not a good thing, we should be talking about that and protesting that, and realistically just moving away from that.

You are actually right.
