r/Piracy on Reddit is more of a meme subreddit. I've never seen any actual discussion or valuable information as I do on this community. Why is that?

As a corporate entity Reddit had much more liability to worry about and more to lose.

Part of the appeal of the fediverse is that any of us anywhere can run an instance with different stakes, applicable laws, etc.

Without having to worry about profit, conversations can flourish.
