Can someone tell me the reason why these people don't want to leave Reddit?

And of you hang around a hostile place or act hostile in a welcoming place, you'll get what you earn. 💩

Should we ban scat fetish?
Brooo, we're so getting defederated.
Like, fr, I vote to ban it and this is why. An instance that allows gore and scat is almost definitely only going to be federated with other such instances. That stuff seriously needs its own instance, just for the safety of every other, more standard community. If scat shows in the all feed of another instance just one time, this instance will be instantly dead.

Is this the official r/piracy now, will the megathread be updated for this?
Personally, I think the Reddit megathread should be updated to strictly link here.

Yeah, to some of us it does. I'd prefer not to have to swap between a bunch of identical accounts just to be able to go from checking the subs I mod to looking at tech news.

There's a pretty gigantic gap between a $150 device and a $400 device.

Dang, PS2 and GameCube playable? That's honestly a shock to me, I wasn't even sure PS1 would be doable.

POLL: Should we allow content migration bots?
I voted for bot-specific communities, but I honestly think subscribing to them on other instances is better. It's what I've been doing already.
Also, that other comment's idea about banning anything but OC, that's the worst idea I've ever read. At that point, you may as well just declare this an anti-2D instance, because adult art communities will never survive under such draconian rules. Even on Reddit, my sub only got about one OC post a month, and I doubt that one regular user has moved here.

Is the Retroid any good? Every emulation handheld I've managed to get has been trash so far.

That's what sourcing content is for. All the communities I moderate require sources when possible, and proof of best effort when not.
Your suggestion would make hentai communities all but impossible for the exact reasons you already stated.
Linking only to an art page would make the communities functionally useless. People don't come to follow a million links, open a hundred web pages, and sign up for a dozen services in hopes of seeing something they like, they come to see the content, same as in any IRL content community.
Nude photos are cheap and easy to produce, so those communities would never be starved for content, but a hentai community that only allows direct images if they're OC would be dead on arrival.

Can usenet be used for free?

I've seen people talk about real debrid forever, and to this day, I've never seen any explanation of just what it is. I've looked it up, and all I found was a generic site with a signup, and the best description I've ever seen anyone use for it is "worth the money."
Edit: No, nevermind, I figured out what it was for. What I couldn't figure out that put me off was the price.

It's actually in the megathread under tools. Basically, it's a downloader service. Downloads torrents and ddl files to their servers, then you download from there.

Some pregnancy stories I've written
Stories are cool. I need to update the rules to better reflect that.

Fallout 76
I managed to get it for super cheap so the cost was never really an issue, but it didn't really grab me. The biggest thing that put me off was the heavy focus on building in the early game. The community was really great at the time, though.

I've got a real early switch I've been wanting to mod for a while, I'm just worried about ending up with a cheap shim that screws the connections on my rails.

That's absolutely the most insane part, they're the most affected, but also the most likely to just ignore it.

Honestly, I was talking more about the mods. I only know of about three NSFW subreddits that have actually migrated, my own included. There are plenty that have popped up under the same name on Lemmy instances, sure, but for the most part, the mod team from reddit isn't involved and are just happily chugging along over there.

Ubuntu minimum requirements
Well, I don't know the specifics, but my current Ubuntu PC is the standard install on a laptop from about the same timeframe, and it runs really well.
