The discussions that have happened in various threads on Lemmy make it very clear that removing the communites before we announced our intent to remove them is not the level of transparency the community expects, and that as stewards of this community we need to be extremely transparent before we do this again in the future as well as make sure that we get feedback around what the planned changes are, because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

No that's not correct because the community they banned was not on their instance.

All this does is prevent Lemmy.World users from using or seeing the community. Everyone else is unaffected.

I misunderstood which community was being discussed. You're correct.

A server banning a community it hosts effectively destroys that community
A server banning a community it does not host makes that server's users unable to interact with it

That's very similar to banning a user.
