Still worth it!
It would have been cool to involve the community by doing some kind of art contest. (Not saying I would participate, I just like the idea.)
I actually love this idea. Do you mind if I run with it, or would you prefer to make a post about it yourself?
Go ahead, I don't mind. I'm glad you like my idea.
very wiki
Great. I support dbzer0 over the reddit bootlickers any day of the week.
Is the megathread outdated? It has entries that both don't work anymore and were already removed in earlier versions.
I use fmhy wiki for that reason.
I've just started going through it to make any necessary updates since it was originally ported over from the rentry version a few months ago. It will likely take me a couple of days to finish updates. But we would ideally like our members to help out with keeping it up-to-date after that with any breaking changes.
Edit: I've updated all the megathread wiki pages now to bring them up to date with the current rentry version. But we can expect some divergence from this point on as our members make edits.
yippii
I clicked on this thinking it was some other version of the wiki, only to find it's the version I already have bookmarked. Definitely a wiki I have found useful over the short time I've been using it.
Is the old rentry.co megathread being deprecated?
Yes it's being deprecated on Lemmy c/piracy, and we would ideally like our members to help out with keeping the Community Edition up-to-date with any breaking changes. TBH the rentry version is very Reddit-focused and there is no direct community involvement with it from the Lemmy side, which is one of the reasons for the change.
The Megathread is a godsend from the god who took pirates as his favourite creation: The Flying Spaghetti Monster!
Now that I've said that, it actually makes a lot of sense, so... R'Amen. lol
Welcome to the sea / pira-sea wiki
OP while writing this
Howdy!! The megathread hasn't been updated since a long time.
Hello fellow pirates a newbie here
If I don't upload, will my ISP be less likely to file a copyright complaint? No, it is unlawful to download or upload copyrighted content. (based on the laws of your nation). Though, uploading (sharing) copyrighted content is a more severe offence. https://wiki.dbzer0.com/piracy/isp-complaints/
so first, it definitely depends on the law, where i live downloading is perfectly legal, it is just uploading that is illegal.
second, how would they get list of downloading people? they would have to be uploading first and then saving a list of clients downloading from them, which is quite resource heavy activity, just checking who is offering something is far easier.
and as a person working for the isp in the past, i honestly don't remember deleting any complaints that someone was downloading something, all the complains were about upload.
so i think the answer to this question is definite yes, getting a complaint about download is like million times less likely
Be careful who you give access to. Despite the extreme incompetence of Elon, you might be a target of some fucked in the head peon he threw a dollar at.
