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

I think people with that mentality largely already have, they've just done it here because they understand the community and discussion are the value. I don't think many people clinging this hard to reddit are going to be the type to pilot new communities.

Yeah you're right, maybe it's just wishful thinking haha. A lot of these complainers threaten to create new subs (like that's a threat?) to try to replace privated subs... and yet for some reason they don't actually do it.
