Lemmy.world sucks donkey balls and this isn't the only example.

Considering how powerful is the copyright mafia (Remember that the pirate bay founder got jail-time) I totally understand why the people running the instance are doing so. I get why user are pissed off, but they're free to host their own instance and deal by themselves with the legal liability

I can see why they would do this if their servers are in the US, Japan, Germany or another country with insane copyright laws. If not this move is stupid, almost as stupid as hosting your server in one of those countries.

Lemmy.world continues to prove that their biggest utility is in attracting the bulk of the Reddit Crowd so that other, more specialized communities aren't overwhelmed, and the older worlders can then join a better community for the long-run.

Another lemmy.world L, don't know why anyone bothers with that shitshow.

Lemmy.world is designed for people who want another Reddit. Interacting with their users & communities tells you all you need to know. I'd be a fan of defederating, tbh

Thanks for pointing it out. Time to stop using my Lemmy world account. Bye-bye

Edit: or more likely just make another account and main it.

Again?

Interesting. This and other actions seem to hint that they got themselves into the crosshairs of legal law enforcement. You reap what you sow. I suggest that people don't ignore potential issues with an instance, because it does spill over in unexpected ways. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FFdbbcj4Ao
