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...

There might be some issues with lemmy.ml itself after a while, but the community should be able to move to a different instance if it becomes a problem on one.

Are you referring to physical issues with Lemmy.ml, like staying reliable, or some future philosophical changes?

[-] cnnrduncan@beehaw.org 12 points 1 year ago

It's entirely possible that in the future lemmy.ml may be taken over by admins who disagree with piracy, taken down by a government, or simply run out of money to pay for hosting costs. If that happens it shouldn't be a huge problem as the federated nature of Lemmy shields other instances from stuff like that going down in a separate instance!

Oh, I gotcha! I thought you had some immediate knowledge I didn't -- the reddit thing has me a bit jumpy I guess. lol. Lemmy.ml seems pretty chill, that's what I joined here, so I hope it stays sane!

It will be different if millions join in and ot gets the attention of some company or the other. The good thing is that the comm can always move to another instance.
