Hopefully we can get a good community going on the lemmyverse.

Someones just gotta spin it up. Im sure that Lemmy will be the new home of piracy. Id be shocked if Reddit didn't nuke all the pirate subs in prep for their IPO

[–] sneakyninjapants@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I noticed that myself :(

Apparently around two hours ago

Had quite a few tabs open for TOTK too. In hindsight the community really should have prepared for this eventuality. The only user I remember from the group is /u/chucksfeedandseed. On a side note, what is lemmy.ml's stance on piracy related discussion? As long as there's no direct linking to illegal material they're fine with it right?

We have direct links to torrents on this instance.

We appreciate it, thank you!

The mod of this very sub (whose name appears three times, because of multiple accounts on different instances) seems to be running their own instance where the megathread for /r/piracy is backed up.

So it seems the Divide by Zer0 instance is the place to be. Although I would assume the admins here are generally not against piracy because of their politics, but they may not want this server to be the centerpoint.

there is a new community already:
!newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

dbzer0 is indeed one of the (ex-?)mods of /r/piracy

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Lemmy, well, jerboa for me, thinks your first link was an email

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

You need to post the url as a relative link for it to work everywhere

Wow, it was my goto for TOTK guides, mods and sharing my yuzu setups. Reddit gets worse every day.

[–] OtakuAltair@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

People have made !newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com and !yuzu_piracy@lemmy.s9m.xyz on lemmy.

If enough people migrate and subs continue to shut down, these might just get big enough.

Can we mirror a subreddit's history (all posts all comments, all voting, backdated) into a lemmy community ?

[–] LostCause@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

So glad we have Lemmy now to talk about this stuff!

Yuzu is a Switch emulator.

It was called New because the original subreddit had already been banned before.

[–] fluffman86@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Hahahahaha! 😂 This is amazing! That sub was probably the main one I enjoyed visiting lately that didn't really have an off-reddit alternative. (Signal and Bitwarden I went to to help others with questions, but they have their own community forums.)

And when someone asked why NewYuzuPiracy didn't go dark, they got down voted to hell with some of the top comments saying how it was dumb to go dark, nobody cares about 3rd party apps, etc. Well jokes on them now!

[–] BRINGit34@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Surely they'll just open another one again. Maybe we will get lucky and it will be here

[–] Elghoto@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What was newyuzupiracy for?

[–] KickMeElmo@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

Nintendo switch piracy, particularly as it relates to the yuzu emulator.

[–] ksynwa@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Running Switch games through emulators (primarily Yuzu since it is much more popular). Recently it had become almost exclusively about emulating Tears of the Kingdom.

[–] Bucket_of_Truth@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Just to add that a lot of times it actually runs some games better than on the actual switch, and has limited mod support. I'm running TOTK @ 1440p 60fps

Dam it. Is this all archived somewhere?
