Is r/piracy the main sub or is this one?

There is a few different ones, one is on lemmy.ml which I am meh about, another one is from an ex-mod of r/piracy, see here for them posting about being removed:

Right now I think this is all a bit of a painful fragmentation, but I am hoping for some app/website/idk to release which can present these communities better together, cause I‘m half the time confused now where I am. I don’t know which one I‘m supposed to use or which will "win out" (when I wish actually all would be more as one, but as failsafes exist separately to take advantage of the fediverse).

A few days back I saw some discussion on implementing a "multireddit"-like feature to allow multiple communities on the same subject to be aggregated together in the end user's view, something like that would be a good solution IMO.

Seconding this, being able to group different instances together would be really cool

I think the former mod is now modding this:

ETA: It's not letting post the full magazine address. I am try now adding some underscores to the beginning and end, just delete them to copy.

Yeah what we need is mods of this one taking over c/piracy on other instances and linking here instead (but that might break some feediverse rules, I dunno)

I'd rather there be multiple communities that are independent of each other and give users a multireddit-like view that "merges" them together, at their option. That's especially useful for something like the subject of piracy, where some instances might face legal problems for having certain relevant content on them.

So you want multiple competing "subreddits" about the same topic? Yeah, that is not the way to go really.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, I want that. You want a particular topic to be completely under the "control" of one set of admins or moderators, chosen... somehow, without the ability for someone to make a community with different rules and participants? That's really not the way to go.

Reddit already allowed for this anyway. There were innumerable "competing" subreddits over there.
