“Unremoval of Piracy Communities” https://lemmy.world/post/6018317
This post needs to be updated to reflect the current policy.
Six months later, a new Removal of piracy communities announcement confirmed that these communities had been removed. !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, which was the most popular piracy community, is still inaccessible to lemmy.world users. This is misleading: users see the old post, sign-up, and then find out they cannot access the community.
Please edit the original post to include the new removal announcement.
Hi, I am from an instance no one ever seems to talk about and when reading these kinds of threads I am glad I made that choice. 😁
In case you aren’t aware, there is a comment chain below the first reply to your comment that adds some light-hearted teasing to your reply. Nothing but love for our German lemmings! ❤️
I’ve seen it. :D
Ok everybody. You heard them! Everybody talk about discuss.tchncs.de! Let’s ALL form opinions and talk at length about them!
Hey, are we fighting? I llllooooovvvvvvveeeeee fighting!! Oooo weee, those discuss.tchncs.de accounts are always trouble!! Gotta watch out for those guys, am I right?!
Those damn discuss.tchncs.de
Always discussing technics from De…
When will they Learn!
Every single user I’ve seen from that instance wants to remain relatively unknown, like they’ve got something to hide.
…ok, I honestly can’t tell if you’re in on the joke, or if you’re being a nutjob.
bruh
You can’t tell they were joking around? :/
Well, I can tell. They are.
We all are, lol. Text with no conveyance of emotion sure is fun and never leads to arguments, ever!
Actually, I’m starting to think that sarcasm on the internet may be the problem…🤔
Text truly is a difficult medium. It doesn’t help that many statements that would have definitely been sarcasm a couple of decades ago are legitimately said by fascists these days.
I’ve been on the internet since 1994, and I was on BBSes before that from 1987, so that along with my ADHD means I tend to over-use emoticons to indicate the light-hearted tone of most of the things I write. heh.
Also I also overuse “lol” and “heh” and “meh” for those purposes, too.
I know some rail against the usage of “/s”, but really, it’s no bad thing. Sure it may identify some jokes that the author intended to be subtle, but in the days where these things are said by some people… it’s just necessary, alas.
I hated discuss.tchncs.de before it was cool.
Oh man, people from discuss.tchncs.de just cannot take a joke
Block the whole instance
To be fair to others less knowledgeable, I’ve seen first hand someone admitting they joined .ml because it was the first/largest server they learned about, not knowing it was a marxist-leninist joint, and they were asking how to transfer their account up on outta there. That was a fun thread lol
My point is, just like we can’t judge people based on their national origin, we shouldn’t judge people from their home instance. But as a general rule, yeah .ml reeks lol
Idk if you’re on grad I feel like you definitely know what you signed up for.
I agree but think its also different depending on context.
Like if someone has thousands of contributions and there account is 6 months + old. Hell yeah I can judge them on the instance they use. Because they have had plenty of time and opportunity to learn and change.
A new user on the otherhand. I won’t.
I myself have both a defunct world and ML account from a long time ago when I first joined the threadiverse.
