The largest piracy community is hosted over at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked !piracy@lemmy.ml.
If this is a problem for you, I’d suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn’t block it (such as lemm.ee).
edit:
An official announcement has been made:
There is no “maybe”, that’s exactly what it is (it’s in the OP’s link).
Lemmy.world may be one of the largest instances but it never promised to be a straight Reddit clone. While it’s still figuring out scaling up and still attracting large DDOS attacks, the last thing they need to be dealing with is DMCA claims and letters from copyright lawyers.
This is the beauty of federated social media. Don’t like the rules? Go somewhere else.
Me? I currently don’t care… I am not interested in that community, I know that people who are interested can still visit it from other instances.
