lemmy.world has become reddit.
time to migrate change instance shit.
Besides the downvoting, there is not much blind disagreement comments here, nor agreement ones. Definitely a comment section worth reading. Fair points of views on both sides.
The piracy communities don't allow linking to pirated content and have broken no rules. This was tyrannical.

You either die a hero...
I donβt think this was the right call. Donβt have it hosted on here, fine. But defederated? I donβt see how being federated would be an issue at all. Oh well guess i got to actively go seek them out now.
At this rate, you might as well as defederate from all instances. Cant be too careful.
It's arguable, but that's what federation is about. No default instance, you pick those you want to participate in and agree with, and their admins have their choices too. It's neat.
What surprises me is that people think making a community specifically for illegal activity isn't a problem, and that they should only be called on their behaviour when a copyright holder notices them. There are plenty of places to go for piracy online, so what's the need to add a community for it here? Or are you people claiming a piracy community wasn't primarily intended for piracy?
Wonder if this has to do with Piracy instance being listed as the largest lemmy community a few days back. Guess it might attract the wrong kind of attention.
Thank you for the update, and thank you for working hard to keep the gates to the Fediverse open.
Sorry you're getting so much flack from folks who don't understand how federation works.
I believe most will understand in time, and go on to become valuable additions to the Fediverse.
Hang in there, and know that the many of understand and appreciate what you're doing.
