The reddit piracy community was in a neverending struggle to avoid being banned from the site, constantly censoring and restricting what people could post to keep the reddit admins happy. What’s the situation with that sort of thing on lemmy? Is it a free for all? Same situation as back there? Something in between? I guess we may all find out together…

    It’s scary , cos lemy.ml doesn’t want the whole website deleted because Disney and Nintendo find one of their files here ,

      Yeah I think hosting a piracy community on the largest instance run by the devs is counterintuitive. Makes much more sense to host it on one of the 200 other instances

        This is why it’s important that no one instance become the “main” instance for a federated service (see also: mastodon.social getting a lot of flack for officially becoming the default server). If that instance goes down then it suddenly takes a huge chunk of users and content with it. So long as lemmy.ml is one among dozens then all is good!
