I’m actually faulting them for trying to make money off a crowdsourced service. They didn’t write the damn subtitles.

Ye, but the problem is the ease of discovery

Anime is a different culture. Most non-anime stuff doesn’t have them embedded (especially the old stuff) and it’s still useful for finding subtitles for other languages

For this sort of thing you probably want to host your own and cover yourself behind something like a revproxy on njal.la

I’d love to have an effort-thread about Streamio if you’re willing to write one

To be honest, it’s not a huge deal. The copyright cartel can easily send dmca requests to your isp just for having text guidelines. Not everyone has the bandwidth or energy to deal with stuff like that.

I just wish this wasn’t done at the request of a transphobic racist who just did it to get back at is for getting banned for making transphobic and racist communities in this instance.

What is the void sub and why don’t you just start one here?

be the change you want to see in the world :D

I understand it’s difficult, but I expect eventually they’ll read the writing on the wall.

MySpace and digg still exist as well. Social media sites don’t die in the typical sense of the word, but they “die” nonetheless. More like abandoned malls than 6 feet under

The only tip is, be an active poster. If you start a community, you have to be the one regularly posting content until you get above like 1000 subs and others start posting consistently. If you can’t dedicate yourself to that, it won’t go anywhere

I’d argue !piracy has made the most successful transition
