I think this is the perfect opportunity to plug to everyone the concept of password managers and other basic web security concepts.

In fact, I'm tempted to say I WANT people to know I'm not the one downvoting them when I disagree.
There's a video that shows exactly this phenomenon in real time.
The most important people are the first followers. A website with a guy commenting alone is sad for the guy. A website with a couple people commenting is sad for whoever's not talking.
The hell?
99.99% of content on reddit is stolen. What do you think something like /r/WhitePeopleTwitter is about if not content theft from another large platform, with first come, karma served. No one, not a single person there, is ever even concerned with wether or not permission was requested and granted. Heck, not even guides are safe from this. Go visit /r/piracy, and check their wiki. Think of how cool, useful and well formatted it is. Appreciate it for a bit, right before being informed that even this was initially copied nearly verbatim from another online resource. One that, ironically, is banned from being posted on Reddit.
It's a link aggregator, that's the category of website it falls under.
And so is this one.
Steal and credit. Link the original directly if you feel too bad. Reword after research, but do it manually if it concerns you. You will be doing more than due diligence. Because if no one ever stole, we'd basically have no content.
Not every community is as garbage as Overwatch's. Stardew Valley's and Hollow Knight's are super chill.
Same thing for every single-game community. Dota's deserted. Also things like patientgamers is lowering in activity.
/r/Piracy
That's not the real games piracy sub anyways. The true successor of the scene-watching community is and always was /r/CrackWatch and even there people are very aware that they're not contributors, just spectators. So basically, it was a place for movies piracy, and movies piracy is and always been the most piss easy, top result on google piracy around. I haven't gone on a single website to pirate movies in a decade, shit is all searchable either directly on qBit and deluge or on tracker tools.
They don't want to come over, so what? They're irrelevant. A wiki service reddit, barely anything else. A place for people who unironically install uTorrent and don't even know what the u stands for.
I think there won't be an immediate rush, but I do think there will be a sporadic sine wave of people checking out the place. Funny enough the best thing people can do is hold off posting memes and then doing it on the 1st of July for maximum engagement.
It's okay babe, happens to a lot of men.
Oh shit I only get one opportunity to say something witty and I just wasted
I like this attitude. Nothing can make a ressit community the official unless if it's a branded product's reddit, and at that point, why the FUCK do you want your community in the control of the brand?
You can't removed about Riot on the LeagueofLegends sub like you can removed about Blizzard on Overwatch and whatnot. That is not a good location for the communty.
There goes the largest no stupid questions community. Bah. They'll be back in a day or two, I know, but bah.
