I was made a moderator of !retropirates@lemmy.dbzer0.com a while back, but now I'm not sure what to do with it. Direct links to newly dumped titles would be a violation of rule 3 (only reason I left the Grimace's Birthday post up is because the game was free in the first place so who cares). !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com exists, and it itself is already niche but more popular than !retropirates@lemmy.dbzer0.com...

I'm not sure what to do with it that couldn't already be done in !piracy or !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com... Do y'all think there's a good place for it on here? What would be a good way to differentiate it from !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com and !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com?

Roms would be more about old video games.

There is one named RetroTorrents but that is mostly a quiet community.

Would retro content also be related to music and movies?

Good question... Maybe, though I don't know much about old music or movies.
