Main mod of r/piracy demoded by reddit and forcing the sub to open up again

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35555.

A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It's late here so I'll see how we proceed tomorrow.

Im28xwa,

Big bruh moment

Very_Bad_Janet,

Btw Piracy moved to:

@piracy

Run by the same mod. They have their megathread, faqs, and everything up already. Everything that they need for their community to start again in this new place.. I would imagine the users of a sub all about piracy are absolutely fine about leaving Reddit for something new.

ETA: Comment edited so you can see the whole magazine name.

honkhonk,

It's amazing that the threat to unmod people actually worked, and a lot of subreddits are reopening, saying that "they have no other option". It shows that mods care more about their place in their subreddit than the community they supposedly did their protest for.

Cinner,

I foresee another great article..

Reddit CEO forces a number of subreddits to open, starting with 'copyright infringement' subreddit /r/Piracy and 'anti-capitalist' subreddit r/antiwork

Just keep digging spez. Maybe you'll make it to China and you can start WeQQit. Not to be confused with Wreqqit, which is what you're doing here.

Tatar_Nobility,

Why do they want a piracy community reopened?

Aurix,

Likely they don’t. It was probably sent to all indefinite blackout subs.
