POLL: Decide on the future of /r/Piracy!

Aw yiss. You know what's cookin'?

Let Reddit die, they've monetized our content and then spit at our faces, especially at the mods.

Please create a decentralized harbor to share piracy related content. Dont visit this site again.

I'm still confused why they forcefully reopen a subreddit about PIRACY? 🤔🤔🤔 Shouldn't they actually be glad that it closed?

Just close the sub and make it full link through to this page. 1 link, explain why you've closed and link this Lemmy. Cut your losses & gtfo

I love the Malicious Compliance from the moderators lately, and the fact John Oliver is just becoming the ultimate meme symbol for the movement and protest.

I vote for our Lord John Oliver

Instead of John Oliver, every post must include a link to this site (lemmy).

I'm done with Reddit. This latest debacle prompted me to look into Reddit's history, had no idea before. What an awful company. Also a community not subject to corporate interest is better for everyone. Anyway, I'm not going back there so if the sub gets closed down, no skin off my nose. Yeah do what you will.

Question: Would sexy pirate pictures of his fursona, John Ottiver, count?

Allow direct links to pirated content. If they ban you, then so be it.

In case you don't know how to find some relevant pictures to post, have I got just the tool for you!

Simply talk to my mastodon bot like this, or my reddit bot like this (You can summon the reddit bot from anywhere in reddit btw)

Alternatively, just use a dedicated client like Lucid Creations or ArtBot and make up your own style

There's only one choice here...

Open it up and allow only sexy pirate pics?

Hey Captain, this instance seems to be hosted in Germany? Is that correct? How safe are we from the empire? What is our battle plan if this gets shut down? Shouldn't you make an account on one of the other instances so we can coordinate if this does get shut down?

(Also, is it weird to post 2 top level comments? I feel like editing my other one wouldn't get the attention needed, since you don't get notified for edits.)

Incredible to see so many Huffman's simps in the comments, no wonder why the blackouts weren't that effective

I have already created some ai images and they are so silly. I can't wait.

I'm only on reddit till Infinity dies.

Who tf wants discussion about digital piracy on Reddit? Sexy pirate John Oliver pictures is way better

Would be funny to only allow pictures of John Oliver wearing an eyepatch; so as to not give admins the excuse that the name is unrelated or something.

Then a link to this lemmy comm for 'discussion' around actual online piracy on the sidebar or a pinned post; this is our main hub now after all.

A subreddit poll like what r/pics and r/aww would be great, because then you're just doing what the community wants.

The salt in the comments of the announcement are glorious though. Yeah, poor pirates getting robbed of their sub. Pirates never have to go to various different websites to get what they want, yep.

I'm disappointed they're just doing the John Oliver thing again instead of something more unique like making the sub about literal high seas piracy.

John Oliver becoming to redditors what Adam Driver is to John Oliver and I'm here for it

Wow, that was my first time back on reddit since all this happened, and even though it was for good, I still feel a bit... unclean. Like I helped them out by sending traffic their way

I deleted my accounts and refuse to click Reddit links, so I can‘t vote or even see it, but I hope whatever option is most annoying to the admins wins.

Yarr harr! All hail the swashbuckling matey of Reddit freedom, John Oliver!

I don't get the reasoning behind the poll. If the admins don't allow to shut r/piracy down then just post links to pirated material. It's closed.

Wasn't this sub in danger of being closed a few years ago? So let them.

My only interaction with Reddit in the last week has been voting on these polls.

Glad to see there wasn't a hostile takeover of the sub. +1 for the Lemmy link.

Close it, before they use it up and close it themselves when they want to improve shareholder relations or some nonsense.

Mmm we need more John Oliver pics

I'm just so glad vital parts of piracy were saved, such as the mrgathread and core users of it's community

Let's promote other Reddit alternatives and redirect every damn post to Lemmy's thread 😝

This is so cool XD

I hope that all the major subs will also take this decision.

I'm ready

I want there to be a piracy sub because Nintendo sucks no one develops games for linux fsr.

I feel like they will ban it anyways before their IPO along with any other communities they deem "controversial"

Aww sheet, here we go again.

I think it would be more funny to post only Lemmy Kilmister pictures.

Yea, I'm gonna stay on Lemmy. It's not as engaging, but that's a good thing - less time spent on social media is always better.

I would prefer lemmy, you are free from all the reddit shenanigans, plus if there's any problems we could make our own server and still stay here, much more reasonable

What do you see the chances for most people coming to Lemmy?

Why are you clickbaiting to Reddit

Here's a few I made with Stable Diffusion

Prompt: sexy pose, John Oliver as a pirate
Negative prompt: penis
Model: Virile Fusion

I can make more if people want, potentially full-on pornographic, but, uh, I'm not sure that's a good idea without his say so!

What happened?

make it a rule that each post must have a lemmy link kekw
