      Lemmy.world is in Finland, though. The FBI doesn’t have jurisdiction there, and they would have to report it to the corresponding Finnish counterpart.

      Yep, since they’re so concerned about what is and is not legally posted to their servers they can walk the walk now and contact the FBI.

      Downvote if you love kiddy porn.

              The frustration comes from the fact that r/piracy is still up on Reddit and they specifically don’t allow links or references.

              So, in a way they’re being much more strict than Reddit, which is a much bigger and well known site. I can understand a little bit of the frustration.

              Lemmy.world is the biggest instance by quite a bit. Anything it bans sees a sharp drop in engagement. It’s a death sentence to certain communities so there’s something to be salty about.

                  I am on that instance, that doesn’t change the thousands of lemmy world users who have stopped engaging with it. Even worst, I have to split my time between them, so I myself am engaging less with it even thought it was my first account.

                  I’m also not interested in having a dozen lemmy account and obviously neither are most folks. My viewing and commenting ends up being disjointed.

                  I’d like to watch lemmy as a whole grow, not just what the admins of lemmy.world deem acceptable to be mildly associated with. There was zero legal risk with being federated with dbzer0, a complete farce.

                  For all this talk about Reddit being shit, this is the exact kind of behavior that made it shit.

                    Then you shouldn’t care what one community decides they don’t want to locally host, and be glad that now all the competing minority instances can try to make “the” pirate Lemmy community instead of it just going to the biggest by default.

                    Note: Lemmy.world is NOT “lemmy”. Why do you even say this:

                    I’d like to watch lemmy as a whole grow, not just what the admins of lemmy.world deem acceptable to be mildly associated with.

                    Then get off lemmy.world and be the change you want to see. No one’s keeping you here, and if you’re salty about instances that defederate, lemmy.world isn’t the right choice for you anyway, because lemmy.world has easily defederated from several instances, and will again if it suits the admins to do so. It’s their right: they are hosting the instance. Why should they change for you, when there’s a whole fediverse out there for you to land in, even the instance you could build yourself?

                    For myself I’m glad lemmy.world has made the decisions it has made regarding federation and defederating, I think it is very well run, and I’m happy here. When I’m not, I’ll see what I can fix, or leave. No one’s going to do it for me, and I wouldn’t want them to. Why are you wanting them to do it for you?

                    I’m also not interested in having a dozen lemmy account and obviously neither are most folks. My viewing and commenting ends up being disjointed.

                    Your viewing and commenting being “disjointed” is because you have not bothered to look farther than lemmy.world for a home instance that suits your needs. Try Unilem, which has a specific policy about not defederating with anyone, or some other instance as your home base that has policies you like better than lemmy.world.

                    Jesus. Why are you complaining about lemmy growing as a whole, when your specific problem is limited to one instance?

                    And for the record, creating and using accounts on more than one instance does just that: grows lemmy as a whole. It’s clear you find it an annoyance, but for myself I don’t mind, not least because it does actively grow lemmy as a whole and not just the lemmy.world instance.

                    For all this talk about Reddit being shit, this is the exact kind of behavior that made it shit.

                    You’re not on Reddit anymore. That excuse no longer holds. Your own choices are creating the lemmy experience you are having. So get off your ass and do the work to make your experience better. Go look at some other instances and their policies to see what instance is better match for you, because lemmy.world ain’t it, and you whining about how shitty it is here isn’t making it better for anyone.

                    I have no idea what will make you happy. Only you do. So stop pissing in other people’s Wheaties and find or make something that works for YOU.

                    TL;DR: It’s easier to put on slippers than to carpet the whole world.

            I’m upset about the piracy thing, but fully support the action against stopping CSAM no matter the cost.

            The dude above is just dense me thinks.
