Couldn't imagine a piracy community on reddit feeling good about its future.

Reddit will literally change its rules to get rid of communities it doesn't like. They did it with DarkNetMarkets.

Unfathomably based.

Everyone remember to be kind to the newbies, not assume that they immediately understand how the fediverse works, and not to talk about your favourite Linux distro until the second date

Oh man, I am both happy for the instance, and sorry for you lol. I hope you find somebody soon to help with going over all those applications. I don't envy you, to be honest.

Yes surprisingly. I haven't advertised at all yet, but we had 8 people join.

to the new users:

Ahoy, mateys

Welcome! We've been waiting for you!

Guess I am one of the 536 newbies hahahaha!

My advice to newbies is to just sign up for whatever, then change later if ya need to. I think I tried 2 other instances before i found the one that fit best for me

I migrated from reddit today. Thanks to r/piracy post. So far it's amazing. I am using the Eternity app for Android which is the same as the Infinity app for reddit so UI is similar

When referring to communities on Lemmy please use the proper link format. !community@instance

2025 the year of lemmy

For anyone new: consider investing 10 minutes to learn how lemmy works and why decentralized and open source is better than proprietary and centralized platforms like reddit.

Hi, glad I joined!

I’m not a Lemmy admin, but from what I’m seeing, there’s been an uptick of 4,000 Lemmy registrations within the last 24 hours.

There’s now 477,048 Lemmy accounts.

Big uptick for us at bhzon recently, but a degree of magnitude less than this

As one of those newbies?

Hi. It is the two millionth day of September, give or take a few thousand.
