Remember Marauder, whose title screen featured a loop of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” theme song? (This, after the packaging warned that this program was only supposed to be used to make legal copies?)

Wouldn’t “Elon Mode” mean you’re guaranteed to wreck everything?

Not just scummy, but dictatorial in the stupidest possible way. It’s basically like a parent, unable to justify an unreasonable edict, ending any discussion with a “because I said so, that’s why!”

I’m sure Canada is devastated by the news.

TBH, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of legal torrent sites. I know LibreOffice makes its product available via torrenting, but that’s really about it.

Well, I hope this means that all those who followed this subreddit will come over here because, in the end, if Lemmy provides enough content to be a Reddit successor, it will succeed but, if it becomes a mere shadow of what was available there, it’ll fade away just like some of the “Twitter replacement” platforms have.
