The largest piracy community is hosted over at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked !piracy@lemmy.ml.
If this is a problem for you, I'd suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn't block it (such as lemm.ee).
edit:
An official announcement has been made:
What's the fucking point. The community isn't even hosted on lemmy.world. I don't want to have to create a new a account on a new instance every time a dumbass admin decices to block a community I follow. Lemmy is doomed to fail.
Devil's advocate, all content is replicated onto federated instances, the admins of Lemmy.world may be afraid of legal repercussions in their country for technically hosting such content. Personally, I don't think merely discussing piracy will get them in trouble, but their instance, their call.
But that's the beauty of the Fediverse, you just migrate your account to another instance that isn't afraid of repercussions or doesn't have repercussions in their hosting country. There are a few easy to use migration tools out there.
That's not the beauty of the fediverse; it's its greatest weakness. The federation, defederation, blocking of communities and words (world even had a word filter smh) depending on what server you have an account on - this is the shit why the fediverse doesn't have a chance to get to critical mass. It will never be more than a niche thing on the side.
No, making hundred accounts on hundreds of instances is not a workable solution.
On reddit you didnt even have the option to join a new community if it was banned or blocked. This is a better alternative
Right but it would be an even better alternative if you had the choice who to block.
Btw blocking instances at the user level is a feature that will be coming to lemmy soon.
But this doesn't save the admin's ass over legal harassment
Awesome
People can talk about piracy all they want here it seems. It's when folks start giving very direct advice about how and where to do stuff that things turn into a legal grey area for websites. It also helps to not blow up a great source by sharing it all over the internet for the feds and ignorant people to easily find.
I've been on the internet for a long time. Back in my day, we just referred to the where as "the usual places." Seems that's not the norm anymore.
People will just leave instances that act like that. Think of it like evolution to force admins to evolve into creatures that are not a dumbass.
Go back to Reddit.
It's literally the dotworld admins behaving that way. They're too quick to block. And there's a pattern of behaviour.
"Growing pains"
It's to be expected in this transitional time and period away from corporate social media, towards federated. It sucks, but it's really not the end of the world. Cool your jets, salty
Give me my cake, and let me eat it also
Then host your own instance and you won't have to worry about it.
Maybe you can host your own private instance and smirk as you block everybody while the rest of us communicate.
This nonstop suggestion of "hOst yOuR oWn iNstAnCe" is rarely a good solution. They already know it's an option. You never provide anything when you say it, except to display your own smug smirk as you tell your fellow lemurian to get lost.
And they don't provide anything by whining about having to make accounts on different instances and saying Lemmy is DOOOOOOMED because of it. It's the nature of the fediverse, deal with it or make your own instance.
We will deal with it by raising concerns among our peers, even as you callously tell us to leave. You make your own instance and leave others to communicate openly without your ugliness.
