Pirates want to stay on Reddit? This is the last group I had expected to have such a reaction, but here we are. Yes, the mod could have worded it better, but these people actually want to stick around on Reddit.

I personally find Lemmy to be a perfectly viable alternative to Reddit for such subs. I wonder about the reasons why these people still don't want to move.

Don't even need to do that. Just need to point to what happened to /r/megalinks

Looked through the archive from 2019 /u/qefbuo said

Personally I think we should move to a decentralized network like Diaspora, anywhere we gather that's centralized is on borrowed time.

Or what more recently happened with r/newyuzupiracy

When reddit decides a ban hammer is going to strike there is no warning.

The screenshot in that kotaku article contains the full base64 for the TOTK links as well as the sidebar that explains that they're base64 encoded. Brilliant
