POLL: Decide on the future of /r/Piracy! - Divisions by zero

There’s only one choice here…

Aw yiss. You know what's cookin'?

John Oliver so sexy you don't even have to ask the AI to make him so ...

Fucking hell that T shirt with Abs lol overall it looks pretty awesome but also comical.

is this stable diffusion ? and if yes which model?

Yes and Deliberate, but I'm using Loras as well

In case you don't know how to find some relevant pictures to post, have I got just the tool for you!

Question: Would sexy pirate pictures of his fursona, John Ottiver, count?

There's only one choice here...

Open it up and allow only sexy pirate pics?

Or dedicate the subreddit to a resource for pirat-related stuff i.e. pirate ships, cannons and all that 15th century pirate culture. Like taking the name litarally.

That would still have actual appeal

Not that sexy pirate John Oliver doesn't 🤤

Who tf wants discussion about digital piracy on Reddit? Sexy pirate John Oliver pictures is way better
Exactly. Imagine not respecting others' copyrights, I would never damage reddit's reputation by doing such a thing there!
I love the Malicious Compliance from the moderators lately, and the fact John Oliver is just becoming thr ultimate meme symbol the for movement and protest.
Just close the sub and make it full link through to this page. 1 link, explain why you've closed and link this Lemmy. Cut your losses & gtfo
That won't work. That's what we originally did and they demodded me to reopen it
keep it open, add automod(if those will even be possible) explaining the situation in every post linking alternatives.
were you the only mod? or are there other people that are still involved that could help. i didn't really pay attention to the mod list
he was the top mod they would simply demote people or put a super mod in till they are pleased.
the captain of our ship!
What about turning piracy into a porn sub only allowing submissions of pirate themed porn. Seems like the best malicious compliance with how advertisers don't really like to be associated with porn.
I'm still confuses why they forcefully reopen a subreddit about PIRACY? 🤔🤔🤔 Shouldn't they actually be glad that it closed?

Because they know people will actually leave reddit if it's closed

and we did

I didn't leave because the subs are private
Me neither but im definitely on it a lot less, for example right now im browsing lemmy just checking out stuff whats on here etc. Normally i would be doing the same but on reddit, i still do that but a lot less which means less traffic.
I left because why would i want to help generate AD revenue for a bullshit company for free.
I feel like they will ban it anyways before their IPO along with any other communities they deem "controversial"
When is their IPO? I'd like to buy puts and make a killing.
I hope wallstreetbets joins and instead of helping Gamestop, they help fuck up Reddit
I think it would be more funny to post only Lemmy Kilmister pictures.
I am having fun with the John Oliver stuff but now that you mention it… the protest pictures should be pictures of Lemmy Kilmister with a bin, with a K on it. Huge missed opportunity.
I'm just so glad vital parts of piracy were saved, such as the mrgathread and core users of it's community
I want there to be a piracy sub because Nintendo sucks no one develops games for linux fsr.

I also think this comm is getting bigger fast enough that it's enough of a substitute for the subreddit already.

SwitchPiracy - Divisions by zero

All things related to Switch Piracy.

Would be funny to only allow pictures of John Oliver wearing an eyepatch; so as to not give admins the excuse that the name is unrelated or something.

Then a link to this lemmy comm for 'discussion' around actual online piracy on the sidebar or a pinned post; this is our main hub now after all.

A subreddit poll like what r/pics and r/aww would be great, because then you're just doing what the community wants.

it's pictures of sexy pirate john oliver
This is what I want to see personally.
That what I want to see irrespective of the blackout

pictures of sexy pirate john oliver

Would sexy pirate john oliver pix in r/piracy bother reddit more than posts about piracy?

I don't know, ask u/spez who seems adamant to keep the sub open

keep the sub open

Reddit wants content and clicks, 'site engagement,' which r/piracy provides. It couldn't care less if you post John Oliver pix, the Unabomber manifesto, or plot cunning ploys to oust u/spez -- 'long as you do it & do it on reddit.

Let's post other Reddit alternatives?

Hey Captain, this instance seems to be hosted in Germany? Is that correct? How safe are we from the empire? What is our battle plan if this gets shut down? Shouldn't you make an account on one of the other instances so we can coordinate if this does get shut down?

(Also, is it weird to post 2 top level comments? I feel like editing my other one wouldn't get the attention needed, since you don't get notified for edits.)

The rules are there to protect us. If I get enough funding for hosting, I plan to move this to a safer harbor.
What do you see the chances for most people coming to Lemmy?
Yarr harr! All hail the swashbuckling matey of Reddit freedom, John Oliver!
My only interaction with Reddit in the last week has been voting on these polls.
Same, except I've also been commenting to spread awareness about lemmy and the fediverse.

Here's a few I made with Stable Diffusion

Prompt: sexy pose, John Oliver as a pirate
Negative prompt: penis
Model: Virile Fusion

I can make more if people want, potentially full-on pornographic, but, uh, I'm not sure that's a good idea without his say so!

Oh dear, for my own entertainment I tried "John Oliver as a pirate, fucking a hot twink", and got... John Oliver as a hot twink fucking John Oliver as a hot twink, or in one case, connected at the penis to same!
Why are you clickbaiting to Reddit
Admins could rig this pretty easily.
I'm disappointed they're just doing the John Oliver thing again instead of something more unique like making the sub about literal high seas piracy.
I think it should be literal piracy themed porn, since advertisers don't really like to be associated with porn. Every sub should be moving the shift to becoming porn.

Doing something unique is too engaging.

The entire point is making the site boring and useless so people move

Let Reddit die, they've monetized our content and then spit at our faces, especially at the mods.

Please create a decentralized harbor to share piracy related content. Dont visit this site again.
