This has happened once before and they reversed it. But they said this last time too:
The discussions that have happened in various threads on Lemmy make it very clear that removing the communites before we announced our intent to remove them is not the level of transparency the community expects, and that as stewards of this community we need to be extremely transparent before we do this again in the future as well as make sure that we get feedback around what the planned changes are, because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.
This is basically the very instance most piracy communities are hosted on, so you get extra benefit of ALWAYS having access to it regardless of defederations.
Same, but if you're used to the more moderated nature of lemmy.world, just be aware that lemm.ee isn't as quick to defederate from other instances. Personally, for me that's a plus, and it's the reason I chose this instance. Bring on hexbear, lemmy grad, and exploding heads. I don't care. I want to hear what everyone has to say, and I can block people or instances if I have to (through Lemmy and the apps I use like Sync and Voyager). But if you don't want to, there are lots of other instances that defederate from those places but still federate to the piracy instance.
