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.

Come on guys don't let that discourage you from commenting about it; that's exactly what admins and spez want (hell some of those are probably spez's alts lmao).

Minecraft even pulled out of reddit today; other companies might follow. Users just need to keep up the pressure in reddit discussions.

You can copy/paste this premade summary I made pretty much anywhere.

The Minecraft subreddit isn't closing, Mojang staff just won't be posting there anymore.

i kind of wish they would direct people towards the fediverse version, but i don't know how easy that is for them to do without upsetting someone at microsoft behind the scenes

Other companies might follow suit.
