All the piracy subs I can find are dead, quiet, or too niche. I’d love to be part of an effort to bring reliable and maintained information about how to safely pirate to lemmy. It’s actually one of the most frustrating things about switching from reddit. Are we puritanical here or something? If we had active piracy scenes I pretty much wouldn’t have to be on reddit at all anymore.

      Even their pro gen AI stance is stemmed from piracy (anti-copyright). You might say they are too pirate

      You don’t have to join db0, just an instance that federates and then you can join the particular communities on db0 you want.

      Yeah, I hate that too, but db0 still works for me in literally every other facet.

      But the pro gen-AI stance is really at odds with the otherwise anarchist-ish outlook of db0: replacing individual human creativity with something that by its very nature requires large corporations to even run, or just a TON of personal capital to run yourself.

        it only really clicked for me when I heard it described as (anti-corpo) pro-genAI

        so, pro the technology but fuck the big players in the scene… fuck the big players in any scene

        much more selfhosted genAI stuff in those comms than your big names (I think, the corpo side of it has turned me off the whole jam too so I don’t browse them or anything but the position isn’t so at odds with the anarchism imo)

      The beauty of this platform is you can be a part of one thing but not the other
