Oh boy, I didn´t know that. What´s the reason of doing it that way though? I mean, since I discovered lemmy, most if not all drama related to lemmy being a good platform came down to the fact that certain instances blocked certain other instances OR even to the question why an instance DIDN´T block another instace that had some right wing shit on it. Seems to me, having your instance simply copy over everything might be more of a liability at this point.

That´s one thing I GENUINELY can´t wrap my head around with lemmy in general. How is it, that the admins of one lemmy instance feel responsible for what gets posted in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT instance to the point they feel the need to keep their own members from even seeing it? It doesn´t reflect negatively on firefox, that they allow me to access piracy sites. It doesn´t reflect negatively on gmail that they allow me to use their email address to subscribe to piracy stuff. Why would it reflect negatively on lemmy.world, if their members also accessed piracy stuff? Are the admins of lemmy.world somehow responsible for what their members do, even if it´s not on their own instance?

People hate them so much that it became the most lucrative way of monetizing games ever.

They were but not as a 3d model. Someone has to actually make that 3d model and it looks like that person was the guy from the article.

IMO, resources like the Megathread create a false sense of security here. People read something on there and think downloading anything from sites on the megathread is absolutely safe. Just like any admin of a torrent site can´t catch anything bad before it can cause any damage, the authors of the megathred also can´t be 100% aware of each and every upload on every one of the sites featured there.

Just use your brains guys. We´re talking about piracy here after all!

In the baking? This literally came up the second this situation arose. People jumped from “This upload has a miner” via “People got banned for reporting it” to “The proceeds from the miner go directly to the admins” within one single post. And all most people had to say was “Well, where do I go now?”.

Here are some more:

• Falcon 4.0
• Rainbow Six
• Unreal
• Battlezone
• Gran Turismo

That´s actually insane for one year!

Back then, studios had to actually make new games to make more money. Nowadays, you make one game and then just milk it for a decade.

I´m sure the will be no false strikes at all. And even if, I´m sure they have a quick and easy appeal process in place, just like they have with copyright.

Security wise, there´s probably no reason to consider leaving Bitwarden. Feature wise, bitwarden already has almost all bases covered when it comes to being a password manager. UI is where it would probably be easiest to get ahead. Pricing on the other hand seems a bit expensive on Protons side. The have the “limited offer” now for 1€ a month, which is already 2€ more per year than Bitwarden, but they write that the regular price would be 4,99 a month, which would be beyond rough compared to BW.

Maybe people mainly search for answers to simple daily life questions or something.

What’s aggressive routing? Like more prone to induce road rage?

So it´s a sensible idea for OP to try and reach out to the actual people within the community so that they don´t fall for what the design of the platform wants them to do.

Oh ok, I thought you were talking about the content. Because the original question/post was about the content.

All social media is designed to be addicting.

By whom?

I´m genuienely baffled why the mods of those protesting subs didn´t, at least as a backup plan, also created an alternative community on here right away. Sure, in the beginning, they might have hoped the protests could work. But even after the first two days blackuot, it was pretty clear that Reddit didn´t care at all. So why even fight this fight and not just go “Well, have fun without us Reddit. And here´s a tutorial on how to join us over at lemmy.” EDIT: I know some did. r/piracy I believe were pretty open about packing up and moving to lemmy. And as the days go by, more and more “stuff” I used Reddit for also pops up on some lemmy server or another. Still, an at least fairly organized move would have been nice.
