Thank you for the very informative post. Your professional way of handling the issue, puts corporate professionals, "cough" Reddit "cough", look like the amateurs they really are

Nice.

I hope the shrooms community can also be unbanned.

This is my first comment ever using this platform.

This is why lemmy is already better than Reddit. Thanks for being transparent and following through.

These posts reassure me that I chose the right instance. Thank you!

I thank you for the work put into reversing the block.

Thank you for being willing to protect this service when necessary, and improve it when able.

Well damn, thanks for getting it done. Didn't think it would happen and I wasn't surprised you guys wanted to avoid the legal risk.

Good Communication is the key for everything

This is amazing! You love to see it!

Awesome

Hear Ye, Nerevar, and listen well. 'Tis I, Lord Dagoth, master of these lands, who brings you the gospel of gaming. Games are not just a means of fun and entertainment, but also a way of preserving our history. Piracy, which so many foolish people seem to hate, is a necessary means of archiving old games, lest they be lost forever. As for the Argonians, and other beasts that call themselves 'gamers,' their greed knows no bounds. Their constant calls for new games only fuel the fires of corruption and destruction that blight the industry.

You guys rock. I fucking love lemmy 🐭

How have you determined these communities are no longer a legal concern?

Respect, Lemmy, respect.

A very good decision 🙂

Excellent news. Respect.

❤️

Fair play

YAYYYY

Good

Thank you for doing all of this including writing this post. The haters are binary thinkers who can't be bothered with pesky things like "context" and "reality"

Finally. I can pirate the whole entire One Piece Anime series. All 1,075 of episodes. Jkjkjkjk. It is good to see transparency and communication.

This was the right move.

👍

Glad I can use this as my main instance again. Love the transparency of the mod team even if I don't always agree with the decisions.

This is what I like to see. Not just heels digging in, but explanations as to why, the follow-ups, the investigation of options and follow through. Thanks for the transparency. Piracy has and won’t ever go away. I used to pirate due to lack of money and resources. When I had those I went legit. When legit sources started turning into:

• monthly subscriptions for everything
• when legit sources suddenly delete or remove content from their systems (to avoid paying taxes?)
• when the rates go up for everything (internet access AND streaming services)
• now ads in your paid services unless you pay more (Amazon)
• Plex trying to go legit and police where and how people run their private streaming, fucking over license holders who built the financial footing they could stand on in the first place. Cool.

You can’t rely on any shit from these services, except for one shit… enshittification.

I don’t want to sound negative, but as a consumer, it’s been nothing but ads rammed down our throats from everywhere we go and look. They lie, they change rates, they shrinkflate, while their pockets get bigger. Long live piracy.

Great news mateys!

And of course this happens the day after I finally export my subscriptions to my other account to be able to see piracy in the feed of my main 😂

Not complaining, mind you, just marveling at my own bad timing 😂

Great news!
