To be fair, even if reddit does nothing to r/piracy, we're still better off moving ship. Our reddit community is already dangling on the edge with serious threat of being banned anyway.
It's worth building this community here just to mitigate the risk
Oh, I fully agree. I'm here not just for this community but for the whole fediverse shtick too. And if this move gets more pirates who came here only for this community into fediverse/privacy stuff in general, even better! I'm really hoping that will happen, but can't be too optimistic I guess :)
And you're right about the risk to the original sub. When you think about it, it's kind of amazing that /r/piracy has survived so long, since reddit isn't known to be very conservative in using the banhammer.
