I will not be spinning up instances of anything. I will seed hashes in bittorrent-like P2P networks, I will put my posts where they fit, I will look for posts from others in the most anti-censorship ways I can find, and I will hope devs and server admins create a version of Lemmy that’s fitting for more of my posts - while hurrying toward a possible future where Tor isn’t enough to make Lemmy relevant anymore, because P2P networks become the only place worth posting anything.
If you start posting random links to warez in a way that’s basically spamming/advertising, yeah it’ll get removed.
Sorry, we do not want c/gaming to become just a zillion links to software nobody cares about, and we aren’t a .torrent aggregator. We just don’t want to blot out posting by becoming a glorified RSS feed of torrents.
If you’re replying to a comment looking for something difficult to find with a relevant magnet link or something, that’s probably fine as long as ya know it’s not a virus.
