I’m sure everyone lately has noticed there’s a tonne of hate on the privacy subreddit, with every new post/comment there getting more and more aggresive than the last
I personally am loving the Lemmy community but I feel as though keeping the piracy subreddit in it’s current state is making users of it quite hostile to change since they believe they are being forced to move
This will honestly make them refuse to ever use Kbin/Lemmy since in their eyes it’s the moderators and users here that have killed r/Piracy (obviously wrong of the stick it’s Reddit that’s killing it’s own communities with it’s policies)
So I guess it’s a question of should we as a community hand over the subreddit to a new moderation team or some other change since I don’t feel like it’s doing us any favours
Hoping to use this post as a sort of discussion about people’s opinions

I see these users constantly call for the removal of mods. Let them go the way of interestingasfuck, with mods forcefully removed by the admins and it is now desolate and closed to new submissions
Give the people what they want
And yes I will keep talking about reddit because I love drama. Give me better drama to talk about and I will move on
I do kind of think Reddit will be very hesitant about assigning mods to piracy subreddits since it might look like them encouraging piracy
In all honesty in surprised Reddit hasn’t been more heavy handed removing subs like these
