  • Honestly to me it sounds like too much of a hassle keeping up with the conditions of all these PTs just in case you may want something specific one day that you can’t find public. Only makes sense to bother with PTs if you constantly want stuff that you can’t grab public and have the time to jump in on the new hot torrents that a lot of people would like to download so you ramp up the seed ratio (sounds too competitive for my liking)

    Like how do you keep up with requirements if you’re only gonna grab stuff from there a few times a yearwhen you can’t find it public? And with so many PTs too, not just 1













  • The thing is, loveforlandlords wasn’t about actually loving landlords. It was stuff like “Oh single mother? Time to increase rent”, satire from the perspective of the landlord. Then the new mod came in and he was like “Nah fuck this” and turned it into landlordlove 2 electric boogaloo

    Loveforlandlords was like boozecruisers, satirising something a lot of people dislike. Now loveforlandchads is the good one and landlords is a dogshit sub


  • Yeah. Also I remember when loveforlandlords went from a shitpost sub for making memes about landlords from the perspective of the landlords to a cringe sub about non-jokingly hating on landlords because some degenerate couldn’t fathom the existence of such a sub, even tho there’s a sub for serious hating on landlords already. He became the main mod, kicked everybody else and the others made loveforlandchads instead

    Just like this, Reddit kicked DB0 and he made the Lemmy server





  • Reddit staff wants to bring down stuff like piracy subs, they want you to break the rules en masse so they can shut it down. Sure we can say “oh boo hoo we have Lemmy” but how many people don’t? How many people won’t bother with Lemmy? How many don’t know about it? How many people will DL from Steamunlocked? How many will torrent from the Bay using Bitlord? The Megatgread is still crucial info that needs to be accessible to as many people as possible

    If you read the Megathread piracy will be second nature but if you don’t and then get malware after malware, at some point you’ll say “fuck it” and stop, which will deter a lot of people
