Piracy and Star Trek communities had a lot more success migrating their communities over to lemmy compared to other communities. Not 100% success as many opposed to the migration (I remember seeing big drama on r/piracy back then, and lesser drama on r/startrek), but a good chuck of them was successfully migrating to lemmy.
Edit: wait, I didn't realized it's @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com himself that made this post. Man, I don't know how you're able keep going with encouraging redditors to migrate to lemmy with how redditors that stay on r/piracy was treating you. I say good riddance! Your hard work paid off!
How were redditors treating them? Just being obnoxious and refusing to change?
My memory is hazy, but during the subreddit protest, he was somehow removed from moderator list (did the admins got involved?), and the sub reopened shortly after. From then on, any thread about migration to Lemmy is full of people roasting each other. It was awful. No idea why those who remains were so vehemently opposed to migration of a piracy community. It's not like you can openly discuss piracy stuff on Reddit without risking removal by the admins.
Yes, the admins removed me without warning then re-arranged the mod team
Classic Reddit.
Thank you for everything here, this is a fantastic instance.
To what level is this community still affiliated with the subreddit?
Same mods. I don't particularly hang out in reddit anymore, but @sunbrothersco@lemmy.dbzer0.com is still doing unpaid volunteering for spez :P
Spez is going to pay back, don't you know about Reddit karma turning into real gold? /s
