Having a normal piracy related sub on reddit is actually a good thing.
I see more and more (I assume young) people that are bootlickers on r/piracy that I'm wondering the following.
IF, the real productive people, like the mods on that sub like db0 for example, come here, and there is still people there is it really important to have a sub there?
You see, if there is no productive conversation going on that sub, because the people who are productive came here, that sub will die off, but slowly.
At least we got rid of the bootlickers, right? Also, as always piracy always gets banned, if a site gets too big, too mainstream. r/piracy was mainstream. It's better if that sub is the frontpage of piracy, but the real important things are happening here.
My request for the mods: Next time, when there is a need for an update of the megathread, don't update there. No need. Just do it here. It helps lemmy more that way.
I tried Jerboa first and now I'm on connect. I like them both but I think I'll stick with connect. It might be worth a look.
I tried Jerboa then Connect as well, Connect is definitely the superior of the two, I'm hoping for Connect to become more like RiF, or something else that will, but connect is good enough for now.
Yep I get it. Everything is early and has room for improvement. I am impressed with how well made these apps are with how new they are. Way back with the start of 3rd party reddit, it was sometimes pretty rough compared to where it got. That said, the completely unfriendly and abhorrent interactions those apps had to deal with since reddit has some shaky coding might explain the struggles. I know nothing about Lemmy on that front, but there's clearly devs who care and have used prior knowledge to skip some pains.
