Reddit's /r/piracy has completely moved to https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy after Reddit de-modded the top mod.
And /r/piracy went to NSFW and now porn and john oliver. We're all in on Lemmy.
So, there's 1 for you.

"completely moved" when only 15K out of 1.1M users have moved is a bit of overstatement.
Even so, this is the remarkable exception(-ish) to the rule, and the subreddit still seems to be pretty active , in fact with a lot more comments than Lemmy
Are they?
I have not seen any of the moderators quit , nor any communities being able to migrate elsewhere.
The funny thing is that many communities created polls, which voted for indefinite shutdowns. Now moderators are having withdrawal symptoms and asking their community again, and they are voting again to shut it down. There are some very real neurotic effects there.
Reddit provides a unique space that is quirky enough for redditors. Moderators have ruined the communities since many years ago, but unfortunately there is no other place that values spontaneous order similar to reddit.
