Honestly it's more a how-to on digital piracy if anything. Nearly every submission will fixate on hating this or that company and stacking on comments about how we're sticking it to the man through one illegal method or another.
People would probably stop doing it if companies stopped doing shitty things. Blame them.
Sure, and don't get me wrong, I'm by no means discouraging people from weighing in with insights about those shitty things. Does every post that even tangentially mentions a company name need to be full comments endorsing piracy, though?
I come to Lemmy for discourse on the content of the submissions. If I wanted to hear about wicked Plex setups and best torrent what-have-you's, surely there are relevant communities filled to the brim. The level of conversation in this community is in my opinion extremely poor and I hope to see it improve with more contributors and broader demographics.
I guess I'm not seeing whatever you're seeing. I only see it when it's relevant.
Probably that's the healthier mindset that I should adopt as well.
