We saw a sudden influx of new account applications recently, so we were collectively wondering if any specific event brought you all here, or it was just a coincidink.

In any case, welcome!

    I’m new to the fediverse in general, but I got here from r/piracy. Watching them and the rest of reddit slowly enshittify was enough.

    Plus I’ve been on a journey away from Google and am learning to self host on my own machines and this place just feels nice. So, thanks!

    I’ve seen a few new users here switching from lemmy.world after the incident there, but that might be coincidental

          World has also repeatedly banned and wiped any piracy or piracy-adjacent communities which has silenced most of db0 over there

            I feel like Aussie.zone does something similar, I can’t search any piracy related pages. Only rarely does one come up in my feed

              Lance: “Fits perfectly.”

              Tommy: “A bit tight around the crotch though.”

              Lance: “Oh yeah, mine too, mine too.”

    I’ve been here for a while, I saw it recommended in some comment section for not defederating a lot and that sounded nice.

    edit: also just wanted to get away from Lemmy.world

    The community feels genuine, reasonable, and not reactionary. I don’t know why but that’s hard to find on the internet as a whole.
