@uliwitness no one of the rules was always no direct links to pirated material. It was more discussion-focused, links to resources, etc.

Though that's one of the rules that's being lifted on lemmy, last I saw magnet links are allowed now.

@rodhilton @uliwitness will make it much easier for law enforcement to bully them to shutdown or persecute people there. The rules were actually good since it allowed for the existence of the community. Hosting and managing a community of such sensitive topic without the protection of a big corporate will be hard and will not survive long.

@vascorsd @rodhilton @uliwitness Without good moderation tools on Reddit r/piracy most likely won’t be able to keep those rules there either.

I think we all can be pretty sure the music, gaming and movie industries biggest focus will be on Reddit with millions of users rather than a lemmy instance which isn’t even remotely close in user count.
