A lot has happened since the reddit protests and the actual subreddit is completely unusable now. What will happen to the mods that were originally updating the megathread, because that thing is literally my life at this point and with increasing actions being taken by corporates to stop piracy, how long do we have on the current links and stuff in the megathread. Don't want to spook anyone just want to know whether we can continue referring to the megathread or is there an alternative I don't know about.

This community is probably more true to the original intent of r/piracy than r/piracy. Same head mod, more freedom to do whatever, etc.

The mod of this instance was a mod of /r/Piracy. I am pretty sure it will stay consistently updated.

It was updated 19 Jun 2023 10:26 UTC according to the bottom of the webpage if that helps your worries.

No worries buddy. Hope you have a good day

hey this maybe a stupid question but I've always wondered- if there are any discrepancies between this megathread and the megathread of the gaming piracy sub, which one should I trust?

There are differences and it will come down to your personal judgement. That said the c/Piracy megathread here links to FMHY and that links to Pirated Games Mega Thread.

You may want to do a quick search before downloading from somewhere for the first time to make sure there haven't been any recent developments but if you float around these community pages you'll likely hear about it.

Some smaller sites/sources might take a while to reach the megathread. Gnarly Repacks for example isn't listed on the c/Piracy megathread but is listed on FMHY and Pirated Games Mega Thread

Accidentally deleted this when trying to edit it. It said the same thing as my other comment.

/r/Piracy is not a place. Never was. This could be /r/Piracy. /r/Piracy is where our people stand.

For Asgar...I mean Piracy.

[–] Ganbat@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 1 year ago

Personally, I think the Reddit megathread should be updated to strictly link here.
