I'm concerned about this comment in the linked Reddit post.
What does it mean, "same mods"? What about "safety"? Can someone clarify?
I used to be top mod of piracy until the reddit blackouts last year, where I was demoted by the admins in a secret coup. I was reinstated by other mods, but have been idle since.
sunbothersco is also the top mod in /r/piracy and it mostly maintaining the megathread but is not very active in lemmy.
We absolutely will never boost posts for money here.
To be quite honest, I wouldn't mind sponsored posts as a way to support a community or instance, as long as they were completely disclosed as so and if the sponsor had no control over the moderation.
If we get instance sponsors it will probably in the instance sidebar, but for now we don't quite need them
