Not looking for anything in specific, I just feel like chatting about piracy in general.
In the words of Stringer Bell “Your not taking notes on a motherfucking conspiracy are you?”
I just got to that episode last night!
Discord hasn’t historically been kind to piracy communities. Servers on Discord often face sudden bans with no prior warning. So piracy communities on Discord are often pretty useless, because server rules (enacted to keep the server from getting deleted) will prevent users from sharing anything useful. They’re often akin to CrackWatch communities, which only announce when things are cracked, but refuse to actually link to the content.

To spell it out, you’re asking people to get together and talk about breaking the law on a platform hosted and run by a company in the US. A platform that has been caught snooping private messages to find justification for banning users from the platform who have not broken any rules anywhere outside of those private messages. A platform that requires most users to register a real cell phone number with their account. A platform with mobile and desktop clients that are well documented as big ol data harvesting machines (seriously the wireshark logs are just stupid with the amount they’re sending back to home base).
Not to mention that for everything Discord does, there are secure encrypted altrnatives. Some p2p, some selfhosted. Not all shoved under the same roof, but they usually are better quality anyway.
Thick as molasses… But not in the good way.
Privacy community on discord 🤡
It says piracy not privacy. But also, we have privacy communities on lemmy which is fully indexed by google and all search engines making it technically less private than discord?
I’m not worried about public forum posts, I’m worried that 3rd parties are storing metadata on me and my devices in insecure databases.
Piracy?
I did one of those once, but jesus christ never again. The kinds of people that would join a piracy community on discord…no thianks.
Update: FMHY has their own discord, it’s linked on their website.
correct me if wrong but considering discord’s poor privacy policy is that really a solid recommendation?
Yes, I’d recommend it to OP.
If you go on any emulation centric server, even though everyone knows why everyone else is there, there is zero tolerance for any piracy discussion deeper than acknowledging that piracy exists.
