As stated in the title, I went to some posts and comments that I had bookmarked for some media that I was trying to download. This was on my lemmy.world account. Turns out they’re gone. Doing some digging and found out this community was still up but wasn’t visible on lemmy.world. what happend?
Lemmy world is the worst. Anytime I see a trash post that’s where it comes from 9/10.
I originally joined up to .world and offered to mod a few communities, cause whatevs I got free time. I saw a fellow mod outright nazi-ing about ( not “saying things I disagree with” but actual nazi fanboy-ing) so asked instance admin if he could be removed as a mod from said community we shared. It was a polite message, and I wasn’t gonna harp or bitch about it either way but I figured if he wasn’t removed I’d just leave (no way that’s not coming to a head sooner or later, yknow?) I was immediately banned from the entire instance without even a message or anything about it. Just outright immediately banned.
Sure, if that’s how hard you’re going to bat for nazis I don’t want to be here anyway. Shrug

A claim like this typically requires evidence.
Yep. They defederated bc of legal risk I think?
so you can defederate from a single community? or they have defederated from the entire instance?
admins banned a community, not one but three. this one, piracy at .ml and another one at db0. it’s likely that lw admins defederated from entire instance too
e: i think it happened in the past but now db0 is federated with lw
Can confirm, it’s only the piracy communities that are blocked, and we are still otherwise federated with lw. It’s not really a big problem as far as we are concerned, they can pick and choose whatever communities suit their instance. We will have lost some clicks and visibility from them, but at the end of the day, it’s not going to affect our share price lol.
