No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I’m hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don’t love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren’t out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

    But “better, more functional” is a relative term. Not sure that many here would be willing to forgo federation, and thus the independence from corporations, which especially don’t like piracy.

    I wonder how Raddle.me would be? They seem to have some policies similar to what I’ve seen for torrent sites

      I like Raddle - They already tried moving the /r/Piracy community there earlier but it didn’t pan out. There’s still a /f/Piracy community there that could be used as a backup in case something goes wrong here.

      Technically someone could set up a Postmill instance (Raddle’s backend software) anywhere & have their own community along with it. One upside with Postmill is that it plays nice with Tor, Raddle itself has a Tor address so does not need to be accessed on the clearnet.
