There's an awful lot of TERRBILE 'information' on there though. What we don't need are thousands of posts from idiots who don't know what a torrent is, what a seeder is, what ddl is, why they receieved a warning notice, or a those idiotic 'why I pirate' shitposts.

Yeah its in the sidebar on desktop : https://rentry.co/piracy-isp-complaints

Really useful and hopefully the group won't be flooded with 'I get FINED by my ISP!111!!!' posts

Yeah his argument is dumb - if you don't like a particular sub or how it is run, you can (or could), create a new one. This new move by reddit makes that pointlesss- literally saying if they don't like how you run it, they'll take it over. How is that 'democratic'?

My guess is that this was the plan all along - move fast so mods are forced to pick a side and sadly I think many will stick with reddit.

Horrible move but it looks like a lot of subs are going to roll over and take it - I guess this was always the plan and that reddit figures its better to move quickly to prevent protests taking hold.

Hoping more will break away and move here instead but not expecting a mass exodus.

I closed my twitter last year because Elon is a scumbag, I'll happily do the same on reddit.

 

First post! Looking forward to getting involved as I move away from deddit....

Great to see the ISP Complaint page just have a couple of suggestions / corrections

  1. An ISP would have little incentive to arrest their subscribers

Nobody thinks an ISP has the power to arrest anyone.....

  1. Suggest addition of 'debrid' solution to the 'how can I avoid complaints' part

You have seedboxes and DDLs in there, but Debrid solutions offer agreat way of using both. The main debrid sites let you

  • Add torrents safely and turn them to DDLs (like a Seedbox)
  • Bypass filelocker limits on speed and number of DLs
  • Can be used with services like Stremio to give you higher quality streaming links that are precached - which means no torrenting, no buffering and of coure, no risk of getting caught.
  1. Maybe add something about 'fines' - lots of people mistaken think their ISP can fine them. This is just not true. Only a court, or in some places the police, can issue penalty fines. There is no country in the world that allows ISPs to fine its customers.
