I was made a moderator of !retropirates@lemmy.dbzer0.com a while back, but now I’m not sure what to do with it. Direct links to newly dumped titles would be a violation of rule 3 (only reason I left the Grimace’s Birthday post up is because the game was free in the first place so who cares). !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com exists, and it itself is already niche but more popular than !retropirates@lemmy.dbzer0.com…

I’m not sure what to do with it that couldn’t already be done in !piracy or !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com… Do y’all think there’s a good place for it on here? What would be a good way to differentiate it from !roms@lemmy.dbzer0.com and !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com?

      Maybe? But I can’t imagine that would be particularly healthy for the site for legal reasons. I’m thinking maybe trying to do a biweekly to monthly feed of recently dumped ROMs and related media would be nice? Though admittedly I’m not sure how well I’d be able to keep up with doing that.

    Roms would be more about old video games.

    There is one named RetroTorrents but that is mostly a quiet community.

    Would retro content also be related to music and movies?
