- Xitter links are against our instance’s rules, could you please switch the domain to xcancel.com instead? - Yeah, no problem. - I just did that. - Thanks 
 
- When posting, it is indeed better to post to nitter instances, but for yourself, you can just get an extension that auto replaces such links. - Better to use a general foss redirect extension than slowly accumulate various service-specific ones. 
 Libredirect natively does xitter -> xcancel, bluesky -> skyview, fandom -> breeze, reddit -> redlib, and like 50 more. All with tons of prefilled mirrors and uptests …- It’s a great place to find those alternative frontends. If you’re annoyed by some enshittified platform, good chance you can just enable a redirect in there. 
 
 
- can’t they run like a matrix server instead of discord? cuz u can get a take down notice on discord. - This frustrates me to no end. I follow piracy and privacy communities that only use discord for discussion. It defies logic. - It’s the same with all the stupid cryptobros who post on twitter. Whatever happened to their love of decentralization? Fucking scammers. 
 
- Sadly that’s the norm these days. Surely Discord will die like the IMs before it. - Discord is already dying. It’s been enshittifying for a while, and it’s about to go public 
 
 
- Bullshit, this is a Scam. There is no know way to dump ROMs or get the decryption key. How are they archiving this without a Hack for the Switch 2? The only way would be if they had their own hack and their own emulator, both developed in 2 Month. 
- Pressing X to doubt 
- Meh. Honestly don’t believe it. Stuff like this was before too and it was apparently fake. 
- How did they get the rom for the game? - Possibly with custom hardware. Cartridges are essentially glorified SD cards. However, they would need a dump of the decryption key, which is not possible to obtain yet. This is most likely fake. - I don’t have the know-how, why couldn’t this group do what’s needed to get a dump of the decryption key? What’s needed to make this possible? - Two ways: undisclosed software exploit, or decapping and using an electron microscope. The former would be a world first as AFAIK no hacking group has claimed to be able to do that yet, and the latter is very expensive and extremely hard. 
 
 
- They didn’t, and the console doesn’t have a CFW to dump ROMs yet. - this is a hoax and you all are voting up this complete bullshit image 
 
- lmao, inb4 it’s just a shitty .exe with video files inside like last time 
 
- Amazing - As there is (prove me if I’m wrong) no current way to dump and decrypt Switch2 games this is a highly probable hoax. I wouldn’t consider this to be true and be extermely careful. - Oh - Thanks for the heads up
