Hello mateys, do you want to help steer the ship? Well you’re in luck, mod applications for /c/piracy are now open.
After seeing an obviously spam post hanging in the comm frontpage for hours yesterday with a dozen reports for it up, I realize we might need more people to react to it around here.
The job is not very demanding really. We don’t get a lot of things violating the rules around here. Just some obvious spam mostly. Expected effort is probably as low as a couple of hours per week. Basically being able to keep an eye for possible reports while you’re active through your day. So let us know if you can lend a hand.
Must be willing to enforce instance rules as well.
Being very active in /c/piracy will be a big a plus, as that will allow you to notice and respond to problem posts, even before they’re reported.
Knowledgeable about pirate culture and tech a plus.
Bonus if you’re an anarchist as that vibes with our instance’s culture, but not strictly necessary.
Looking for 1-2 mods. Preferrably in different timezones.
Post your application in the comments and mention the timezone you’re in.
Not really looking to be a mod, but I wouldn’t mind helping out, since I can’t afford to donate right now. I’m in CST (GMT-6), and you might say I’m a little active. Terminally online, I think I’ve been called.
I’m probably not the most knowledgeable here when it comes to tech, but I do have an Unraid NAS with, among other services, a full Servarr stack automating my entire media intake, from TV shows and movies to audiobooks and novels, which pipes everything to the related media server and deletes it after I’m done watching.
And you already know I’m an anarchist, since we talked about it recently.
I’ve been active on dbzer0 for almost a year now, and I really enjoy this instance and the Lemmyverse as a whole. I specifically chose it, after I saw that lemmy.world banned piracy communities. I’m in the UTC+1/2 time zone, depending on daylight saving time, but I mostly work from home, so I’m available throughout the day. Having worked in both system administration and software engineering, I have quite a technical background. In my free time I passively engage with free and open source software projects (I participate in discussions on issue trackers, social media and in chat rooms, and try to promote FOSS projects, but I don’t contribute as much directly). I’m an anarchist, and I’ve been following the piracy movement since the early days of TPB, since I’m very passionate about about digital rights, and open access to information. I am deeply convinced that greedy corporations shouldn’t hold control over knowledge and culture.
I always report spam content/trolling whenever I see it, both here on Lemmy and on Mastodon.
Let me know if I could help out.
Ahoy Cap’n! I would like to contribute to /c/piracy as a mod. I’m on Lemmy daily and have been a pirate since Nero CD burner. I am definitely an anarchist. I know a bit of tech but I’m no developer.
Rules: I only enforce what I agree with … thankfully I fully am in tune with the rules here, no hitch.
Active: I’m mostly a lurker with the occasional comment, but I try to keep up on things. I spend a few hours a day on /all but try to focus on local db0 more attentively in general… Better vibe anyway.
Pirate: Arrr! Does knowing what 1200 baud feels like help? DOS and Amiga Cracktro is my bread and butter! As to the tech, I run all my own services except Lemmy… Y’all do it better. Been working pro in tech, especially hypervisor and Linux stuff, since early 90s.
Bonus: human knowledge belongs to the world … You are free to do anything that doesn’t explicitly harm others. If peace isn’t an option, I can bartend well enough to mix some cocktails to help solve things.
I’d love to help out. Some fax:
I’m not very active in c/piracy but that can be changed, would enforce rules, knowledgeable about pirate culture … I had a very snazzy demonoid account back in the day, so sure, why not. To the last point, goes without saying. CET.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
⚓ Dedicated to the discussion of digital piracy, including ethical problems and legal advancements.

gotta say, not a huge fan of using obvious “AI” art to promote this.
I am not anti-GenAI
I think it is okay, when otherwise this would be just a bland text-only post, and the image is small/ not attention grabbing.
Also the funny fact that the four male characters look like gnarly men, while the sole female character looks like her only talent is wearing make up

I’m guessing (and hoping!) this is just a very unfortunate typo, lol!
That typo was diabolical
Most definitely! It totally threw me off, hahaha!
If One Eyed Willy ever joins Lemmy, we’re set.
Yup, I can do that.
I’m probably not as active as I’d like to be but mostly because my Lemmy is set up to look at all.
I’m not sure what you mean about pirate culture but I’m in tech.
I’m not an anarchist but share many similar views. If that’s going to be an issue, I understand.
I’m on the US east Coast. UTC-5 right now.

I deleted my own account long ago, but joined sometime after reddit stopped 3rd party apps.
I can report spam but yoy can dm me for anything
Who’s the hot one?
Second from the left.

I’m CST , -6 as it were.
Cheers!
Does every post you make need to have some random-ass image
yes
I was just fucking around generating images with Gemini right now, and this reminded me of what you probably need in regards to a mod 🙈
The hell is the problem with generating these things to some peeps? Stealing from, artists?
Hello, I would like to apply as well.
Not very active, but looking to be more active in the community, as well as installing local NAS for some more professional pirating of my own.
I am quite often in the app so dealing with reports shouldn’t be a problem.
Anarchist, still researching and figuring out my exact philosophy.
Additionally I am from Europe so maybe that will help with coverage from timezones pov.

I’m familiar with piracy terms; and can remove spam posts i see.
