Ridiculous. My alt has already become my main due to the outages. Now I’m never going back.

Welp, this is the thing that got me to get rid of my lemmy.world account and move to lemm.ee. There were other issues I was able to overlook, but I need a community willing to stand up to laws that go against the interests of the people.

Nice. It was inevitable. A general lemmy instance needs to protect itself.

@AnimusAstralis The #fediverse does not decide unanimously. What seperates it from #corponet is, it empowering to switch instances if you have a problem with an instances (Through the means of communicating across instances and being able to easily migrate an account) Through competition only instances which have the support of their users wil prevail

As @mojo put it "Stop centralizing ! " Your undeminig the very thing that keeps us from being depended on the mercy of admins

Looks politically motivated. Has Piraattipuolue commented?

Reaction there: oh no... Anyway

It's weird seeing otherwise normal working class people rush to defend admins, moderators, governments and authorities all the time in situations like this. I'm imagining some college kids working at starbucks or grocery stores picking up their phone in between customers posting replies championing copyright law. It's embarrassing

Well, the time has come to set up my own instance.

Yeah sorry, hate to say it but admen got trolled pretty hard on this one.

Oh man. It's not like I can't understand the logic behind it, but active niche communities are the one thing lemmy really lacks as of right now, and piracy was one of the earliest and biggest exceptions to that. What a shame.

What an absolutely cowardly move. It's one thing to not allow piracy on your own server, that's you're right, but to prevent your users from accessing communities on other servers? Way to give in to copyright trolls without even being asked. I would understand even if they received some kind of Cease and Desist. It doesn't seem like it, it seems like they're just willing sycophants who will probably federate with Meta at first opportunity.
