Just woke up. 28 new applications! Each time i refresh the page i get two new apps.
Welcome to all former users of r/GenP! An admin is talking to one of their mods about getting their community onto here, hopefully we can work something out.
I hope you all like the Instance, and Lemmy as a whole.
But guys… You gotta read the application ;) Just because it’s simple doesn’t mean you get to ignore and get it wrong completely :D
As of writing this i just got 6 more applications ;-;
Thx for having us!
Suffering from success
My finger is broken from all the applications ;-;
We appreciate your hardwork!
Hello :D
FUCK ADOBE
FUCK NESTLE
welcome new friends! can someone fill me in on what’s going on with GenP?
Subreddit got shut down by admins, and the discord (can’t reach it sadly) is telling their users to come here :D
W for Lemmy and dbzer0

they were saying about cease and desist letter and that the server might be deleted in some time
Oh, thanks! Welcome to lemmy btw :D Do you have a link to the discord server? The only one i found on the website was a dead link.
Here ya go https://discord.gg/UDypEJjW4V
Thank you :D
edit: Didn’t even realize you were the GenP admin on discord lol
thanks! the Discord link was supposed to be only on the Reddit top bar thing (i don’t use Reddit that often) but since that was deleted i don’t know where I’ll find the link :/
Ah, thanks anyway :)
Can confirm. I finally got the kick in the behind to move over to Lemmy! Thanks for welcoming us :)
We’re happy to welcome you (^_^)
Adobe thought it would be funny to send a cease and desist to Reddit and Discord which were our only two communities. We just switched to Lemmy and Revolt, and will setup a self-hosted matrix server in the future.
Welcome ya’ll. If you didn’t bring a pirate hat of your own, feel free to pirate one. Or indeed, anything.
Sorry you lost your old home, but also, you’re going to be so surprised when you realize the fediverse is like the old internet. (To that end, I recommend lurking until you’re comfortable and understand the whole… fediverse… thing.)
The community alone has ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND USERS… That’s 10x our whole instance userbase 💀
Hopefully some of the new users will bring cool communities/niches with them :D
And donations for the server costs 😬
That too 🫠
as soon as i get employed trust 🤞🏻
Stay strong genP community ♥️
Welcome new m@teys :P
m80s o7
No idea what genp is about, but welcome!
Same. I refuse to go to reddit to get this question answered but if a refugee can do the needful that would be appreciated.
GenP is a software for pirating adobe afaik. @hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com too
Oh that’s cool, Adobe can fuck right off. Welcome everyone!
Ah cool. I wish Adobe actually lost money when people used it, but unfortunately piracy doesn’t work that way 😞
Seems like they’re in the right place.
the fact that all of this happened just because of a discord ping is so wild 😭😭 but glad to be here!!
I like popcorn.
Can you expand what went on?
Same.
In the official discord server they promoted revolt/dbzer0 a lot. I joined both (before the revolt existed) and pretty much fanned the flames lmao.
Nice admin. Met lots of cool people.
the people here are pretty chill!!
Really ? Do you know where I can read on what happened ?
the admins or devs idk exactly who of the patcher got a c&d from adobe which i mean surprise pikachu but i mean a lot of people rely on them and they rose the price to $90 a month so just what the fuck
Piracy and free software helped me immensely from high school to college, and it’s still helping me now in my working life. Really thankful for everyone involved in maintaining GenP and this community!
Our pleasure :p
glad to be accepted, community will come back stronger
Hello 👋 I hope so :D
GenP comunity forever alive!
o7
rip to the original communities
Hi :D
Hewwo!
Hey, nice to be here
Nice to have you here, too :D (perfect username too lol)
Yup, glad I grabbed it quick, saw the d in dbzer0 is division and got real lucky no one grabbed it. Luckily there are a lot of good potential usernames as this isn’t as popular as reddit
Hi nice to be apart of a new thriving community
Good to have you here :D
Thank you guys :)
