A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It's late here so I'll see how we proceed tomorrow.

Is there a way to archive/clone most posts from r/piracy on here, I think while the api works, that's something we should think about.

Should have the mods left there do the bare minimum of modding to not get busted and low-key send people here or something

Admins would probably eventually do something but I wonder how long something like that might be able to last

"Your users rely on your community for information, support, entertainment, and finding connection with others who have similar interests."

We do indeed rely on your community for that! And we've been doing just fine without Reddit. :)

Be sure to remove as much as you can and heavily encourage heavy contributors to delete their comment history. They have no value without our data.

I've gone a step further. I deleted comments and sold my reddit account.

Now my decade old account is being used by someone who wants to game reddit in some way.

Have fun with that spez.

Well there goes my reddit account. r/Piracy was one of my biggest resources and it seems to be going in an unfortunate direction, so I don't see a point for giving reddit my data.

Reopen with the new rules: All posts must relate to the golden age of piracy!

I wonder how much of r/piracy traffic is people who would migrate to whatever fallback we got, seems like the only way. Fighting reddit whilest using it is pointless
