I'm sure everyone lately has noticed there's a tonne of hate on the privacy subreddit, with every new post/comment there getting more and more aggresive than the last

I personally am loving the Lemmy community but I feel as though keeping the piracy subreddit in it's current state is making users of it quite hostile to change since they believe they are being forced to move

This will honestly make them refuse to ever use Kbin/Lemmy since in their eyes it's the moderators and users here that have killed r/Piracy (obviously wrong of the stick it's Reddit that's killing it's own communities with it's policies)

So I guess it's a question of should we as a community hand over the subreddit to a new moderation team or some other change since I don't feel like it's doing us any favours

Hoping to use this post as a sort of discussion about people's opinions

From the looks of it, seems like the people who don't care about the API are the ones left behind, makes me think these are the type of people who don't contribute; and sooner or later they'll realize that.

I fully agree. It's brain drain

The comment quality is that sub went down in recent weeks. Many people don't seem understand philosophical underpinnings.

Still, that's not an argument against what OP is proposing? Let them have it and moderate it to the best of their capabilities, and let them come here if the resulting community is not up to their standards.
