[email protected] has also been blocked from lemmy.world.
edit:
Lemmy.world has released an official response.
To be honest, it’s not a huge deal. The copyright cartel can easily send dmca requests to your isp just for having text guidelines. Not everyone has the bandwidth or energy to deal with stuff like that.
I just wish this wasn’t done at the request of a transphobic racist who just did it to get back at is for getting banned for making transphobic and racist communities in this instance.
Don’t need lemmy world anyways. This is the most based instance on the entire fediverse. Their loss.
One of the most popular instance. This is why federation is necessary and people should create accounts in different servers instead of pulling everyone to one server calling it tge “official” or “main” server
At least they blocked a community and not the entire instance. This is how these things should be handled, imo
Hi Lemm.ee. Bye lemmy.world.
I’ll tell ya a couple of three things, my estimation of Lemmy.world as a general-purpose instance just fucking plummeted.
Best comment
I think this is better tbh, I personally don’t like it when piracy forums/sites/whatever piracy related thing goes too mainstream. Maybe it’s gatekeeping, I don’t know, I just don’t want another Z-Library incident.
Either way, they probably aren’t even against piracy, they’re probably just lazy and don’t want to deal with any of the issues they could potentially face down the line.
Edit - grammar
I kind of agree, with the caveat that I think it’d be super cool if the existing dbzer0 members also checked out other communities on different instances and made Lemmy more popular. I feel like that would be a win-win.
The more mainstream and well-known dbzer0 becomes, the more likely it is to have problems because of that.
We already do :) It’s all federated so dbzer0 members can view/subscribe/participate in other Lemmy communities.
ZLibrary never went down fully. There were always ways to access it.
i honestly think the z-library incident was a one-off because it was spread by colleen hoover fans on tiktok so i’m hoping that it won’t happen again… but maybe that’s just wishful thinking :/
Fucking Lemmy.world is hot garbage. They’re down every day and are constantly defederating with any instance that doesn’t fit their narrow, sanitized world views. It’s also one of the most recommended Lemmy’s with more new users going there than anywhere else. I think it incredibly damaging in the long run to have 50% of active users on this platform to be centralized on one domain. Especially if this domain makes as many boneheaded decisions as lemmy.world
A lot of people register there initially to get their feet wet and move on to another instance later for these reasons. At least we have subscriptions/blocks transferring tools now.
Yep. I started there, found it down all the time and then moved on.
I did it the moment they decided not to defederate from Meta. I don’t like admins who can’t take decisive actions to protect their users (and apparently seem to bend their knees to any big corpo out there)
That sounds like a contradictory stance
I’m fairly new, what are the tools?
This is the tool I used: Lemmy Account Settings Instance Migrator
I also used LASIM but I remember someone else mentioning another tool that could do multiple accts at once. check out this list for it and more tools.
step 1 - go to reddit
step 2 - ?
step 3 - profit
unfortunately i don’t know the specific answer, but you might find something interesting here:
or here:
I would like to move to a different fediverse please.
Let the garbage go there
I think lemmy.world gather the kind of redditors that like sanitized world views, the power of decentralization makes us choose an instance without those hot garbaje takes as lemmy.world.
They should have shut down registrations a long time before they gained such a majority of users.
They stand behind the lie that “if we didn’t let people in, they wouldn’t know where to go”… as if it’s so hard to create a new registration page that re-routes people to other instances.
I’ll never understand the selfishness of people like that. They know they’re actively hurting all of lemmy, but they want to keep all the users to themselves. This thing only works if it’s a collection of smaller instances.
wow, and they only announce it in their discord. fuck lemmy.world
Hello all. First post here. Moved over from lemmy.world because of this.
I joined as well. New to Lemmy. Never even heard of dbzer0 until that post. There have been a few complaints of .world degenerating other communities as well. Streisand effect.
It’s not really a Streisand effect, because .world doesn’t give a shit if you go to those places or not - they just don’t want the liability of you doing it from their instance.
Arrrr
Moved over here from .world. kthxbai!
Its fair enough. They gotta protect their ass.
I just logged into a user made on this instance. Problem solved. And lemmy.world has had a ton of downtime anyway. Always trouble loading comments and often trouble loading posts

Turns out beehaw is more based than world.
Nah. It’s a walled garden, you should know better than to trust those by now.
Beehaw is trash (and so are people who say based)…
Be nice as a main rule? Fuck you, this is the internet. I don’t like most of you and I think you should know it.
And this is why my main account is on the piracy instance.
Honestly, I’m ok with it. Piracy shouldn’t be something that anyone can see. More something people find after looking for it. Yes there is the con to having less users but the more users we have the more risk we take on.

Nothing of value is lost. 😂
I find funny that we all are raging about this dumb move, and lemmy.world ppl can’t because of the blocking lol.
We were notified through a c/Mildly Infuriating post. True pirates are used to having to make some effort to get their content!
And the fact that I can see this means sh.itjust.works hasn’t, yey
Well, that’s interesting. Good thing I have an alts on different instances
