Hopefully we can get a good community going on the lemmyverse.

Someones just gotta spin it up. Im sure that Lemmy will be the new home of piracy. Id be shocked if Reddit didn't nuke all the pirate subs in prep for their IPO

Yes there seems to be something going on from May to June that they felt the need to make a snapshot of headlines on the home page

So glad we have Lemmy now to talk about this stuff!

What is "New Yuzu?"

[-] nivenkos@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yuzu is a Switch emulator.

It was called New because the original subreddit had already been banned before.

Wow, it was my goto for TOTK guides, mods and sharing my yuzu setups. Reddit gets worse every day.

[-] nivenkos@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

My only remaining subscriptions on Reddit were /r/SteamDeck and /r/NewYuzuPiracy - now it's pretty much just /r/SteamDeck

[-] sneakyninjapants@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I noticed that myself :(

Apparently around two hours ago

Had quite a few tabs open for TOTK too. In hindsight the community really should have prepared for this eventuality. The only user I remember from the group is /u/chucksfeedandseed. On a side note, what is lemmy.ml's stance on piracy related discussion? As long as there's no direct linking to illegal material they're fine with it right?

[-] nutomic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

We have direct links to torrents on this instance.

[-] runninghazard@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

We appreciate it, thank you!

[-] lifeishard@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe they could rehome it to https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/freemediaheckyeah

[-] TheYang@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

there is a new community already:
!newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

dbzer0 is indeed one of the (ex-?)mods of /r/piracy

/e: I don't understand why this link up there is not working right, if someone knows, please educate me!
for the time being:

What was newyuzupiracy for?

[-] KickMeElmo@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Nintendo switch piracy, particularly as it relates to the yuzu emulator.

[-] ksynwa@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 year ago

Running Switch games through emulators (primarily Yuzu since it is much more popular). Recently it had become almost exclusively about emulating Tears of the Kingdom.
