After a thread was made in !support@lemmy.world asking to defederate from lemmy.dbzer0.com for “the facilitation of piracy, and copyright infringement in general which is illegal”, the admins of lemmy.world deleted it prompting discussions on !asklemmy[@]lemmy.ml and !piracy[@]lemmy.dbzer0.com.
Well I am an American and I support American values, so as far as I’m concerned it’s wrong and illegal.
Also isn’t lemmy.world in America? Pretty sure it is since they did remove two of their communites for this very reason:This is the dumbest detail for me to get hung up on, but lemmy.world is hosted in Finland on servers rented from a German company by a Dutch admin.
It’s only a matter of time before lemmy.world defederates from everyone.
Good. Well not good exactly, but kind of okay.
We could do with getting rid of them, they’re too big, and too much of a target, and everyone keeps using that one instance instead of spreading out. Completely negating any real benefit.
So if they are going to defederate from everyone, forcing users to move to a more diverse range of smaller instances, that’s okay.
