Thank you for all your work. It sucks that there are people who would do shit like this. Please don’t forget to take care of yourselves as well.

The fact that there was no announcement before the banning of the communities is not great, but good on you for acknowledging that mistake.

It’s unfortunate that this action had to be done, but it’s also understandable. It’s not about what’s right or wrong, and it’s not even about whether there actually is any illegal content in these communities. It’s about the fact that the Big Entertainment Companies don’t care about the difference and see it ALL as bad, irregardless of whether it actually is illegal or not. If the admin team had a legal team and the financial security to fight back, then it wouldn’t be as much of an issue. But they’re not, they’re just a bunch of regular folks, so they’re being cautious and trying to pre-emptively prevent these problems from coming up, especially as Lemmy continues to grow every day.

The beauty of the Fediverse is that you can always switch instances or make an alt account.

It’s unfortunate, but it’s kinda understandable why they chose to do so. The admins are just a bunch of regular people, they may not have the financial security to risk the legal issues that could come from having any sort of piracy related content.

I guess I’ll just be using my alt acc for piracy stuff.

Thanks for the resources. I’ve only just got into modded skyrim, and it’s kind of a lot. Unfortunately I started with the mods in the in-game launcher, but now want to transition to using other modded launchers for more variety. I’ve poked around a bit, and I’ve ended up with quite a mess. 😅 Hopefully these can help me sort out my mess and get the mods up and running.

While I think that we should rightly be very wary of Threads/Meta, I do also think that it is still too early to judge. It’s hard to accurately predict what will happen in the future given the relative youth of Lemmy and the Fediverse. (Admittedly, I’m also relatively new to the Fediverse, so what do I know?) Given Meta’s track record, we should be very aware of the possible red flags and make plans for possible future malicious actions, but for now I’m okay with waiting and watching.

Thanks admins, things feel much smoother now. 👍

My goto for offline gaming is usually emulation, typically pokemon. But I can also recommend the Bart Bonte puzzle games, Vampire Survivor and Shattered Pixel Dungeon.

Kinda sucks, but after reading their and other people’s posts and comments, I guess it’s just their decision to help them in better moderating their community. Hopefully when things get calmer and everyone talks it out, we can refederate with them one day. I’m not a mod of anything so I can’t really talk about that aspect, but it seems that mod tools are lacking in lemmy in general, but then lemmy is still pretty young and has lots of room for improvement.

watched this live, it’s incredible

so many have gone dark already, this is impressive.

It’s a little confusing, the whole fediverse concept takes some time to learn and understand, but I think I’m getting it. I tried Mastodon before and couldn’t get used to/understand it, but lemmy feels more my thing. Given some time, with more people joining and more communities forming, this could be great!
