Just woke up. 28 new applications! Each time i refresh the page i get two new apps.

Welcome to all former users of r/GenP! An admin is talking to one of their mods about getting their community onto here, hopefully we can work something out.

I hope you all like the Instance, and Lemmy as a whole.

But guys... You gotta read the application ;) Just because it's simple doesn't mean you get to ignore and get it wrong completely :D

As of writing this i just got 6 more applications ;-;

Glad to be here. Can anyone give me a recommendation of a good VPN for p2p or should I get a vps and run my app from there? I used Vuze and utorrent back in the day and am out of the loop. Just tired of the 10 subscriptions these days and then my show ends up switching to a different provider that I don't have. Also, I'm boycotting Spotify and have my old iPod back out. Forgot how much I loved that thing!

I am in no way against paid software.

I am, however, against

  1. actively making sure that people, who can't afford it, don't get the software

  2. only offering your software as a subscription service

  3. only offering a license that can be revoked at any point instead of the actual software.

And the colors fly high once again.

Piracy and free software helped me immensely from high school to college, and it's still helping me now in my working life. Really thankful for everyone involved in maintaining GenP and this community!

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Our pleasure :p

[-] tedy02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

Thank you for keeping this important project going! Glad I was able to follow it.

Suffering from success

My finger is broken from all the applications ;-;

We appreciate your hardwork!

[-] AnaGoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Thanks for the help fxomt! Glad to be here!

[-] hnnhmn7@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 days ago

the fact that all of this happened just because of a discord ping is so wild ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ but glad to be here!!

[-] ladfrombrad@lemdro.id 13 points 2 days ago

I like popcorn.

Can you expand what went on?

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 days ago

Same.

In the official discord server they promoted revolt/dbzer0 a lot. I joined both (before the revolt existed) and pretty much fanned the flames lmao.

Nice admin. Met lots of cool people.

[-] hnnhmn7@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

the people here are pretty chill!!

[-] Pipas66@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

Really ? Do you know where I can read on what happened ?

[-] hnnhmn7@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

the admins or devs idk exactly who of the patcher got a c&d from adobe which i mean surprise pikachu but i mean a lot of people rely on them and they rose the price to $90 a month so just what the fuck

[-] ColinPogi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 2 days ago

Hello :D

FUCK ADOBE

[-] Jebby@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Great to be here and thanks for the warm welcome!

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

We're all glad to have you guys here

[-] FeelThePower@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 2 days ago

welcome new friends! can someone fill me in on what's going on with GenP?

[-] Sydnxt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

Adobe thought it would be funny to send a cease and desist to Reddit and Discord which were our only two communities. We just switched to Lemmy and Revolt, and will setup a self-hosted matrix server in the future.

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 2 days ago

Subreddit got shut down by admins, and the discord (can't reach it sadly) is telling their users to come here :D

[-] Resonosity@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 2 days ago

W for Lemmy and dbzer0

Welcome ya'll. If you didn't bring a pirate hat of your own, feel free to pirate one. Or indeed, anything.

Sorry you lost your old home, but also, you're going to be so surprised when you realize the fediverse is like the old internet. (To that end, I recommend lurking until you're comfortable and understand the whole... fediverse... thing.)

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 2 days ago

The community alone has ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND USERS... That's 10x our whole instance userbase ๐Ÿ’€

Hopefully some of the new users will bring cool communities/niches with them :D

[-] MigratingApe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 day ago

And donations for the server costs ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

That too ๐Ÿซ

[-] UncuffedIT@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I'm in!

Thank you dbzer0 for hosting GenP <3

I've been a pirate since 1998 when I was 8 years old so I know a couple of things that I felt would qualify and well look: here I am :D

[-] pseudo@jlai.lu 6 points 1 day ago

Welcome everyone ! Keep going OP, we're cheering for you :)
