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

Thinking long-term, it does make sense to have the main piracy sub on a separate instance, and grow it here instead of lemmy.ml, as the fediverse grows people might not be so accepting of easy access to piracy information on one of the "main" instances.

This isn't related, but I wanted to reward your comment and I realized that I haven't even seen rewards yet. Spending money and rewarding content seems even more important now.

Just donate to the instance. You don't need sparkly gold or whatever on comments, that was always a farce.

I think badges could be a decent modern feature that other modern websites have, and if it helps support instances too I think that would be a good side effect.

A lot of work will have to go in to making sure there isn't something that can be abused etc, but if instances could make their own badge-awards kind of like Discord server & Twitch Channel emoji that would work.

I think it'd make sense to only start out with a crypto like Litecoin or Nano which can be automated, unfortunately crypto has a negative reputation atm.

I would love to be able to support instances this way.

Absolutely agree , the piracy should get mirrored at multiple instances

This is the way.
