Guess my alt account has now become my main account. Thus, the Lemmy dance continues.

Was there some context or discussion about that over there? If I recall correctly, lemmy.world is hosted in Germany, right? The lawyers there are quite extreme when it comes to cracking down on piracy; is a whole business model.... So maybe .world is just overly cautious

Any word on where lemmy.one stands on this? For the moment, I'm still getting this, but I'll create another account elsewhere if necessary.

The issue with lemmy.one is that it appears the admin has lost interest in doing anything at all with it. The person who started it hasn't been online for months, and when the server has issues no one resolves them or even notices.

I'm surprised it ever even came back up after it got broken for so long.

Moved to lemmy.blahaj.zone because of this. And also I kinda got fed up with the outages even though it's not their fault. Glad to see the federation thing is working as intended.

welcome to blahaj. our image uploads and the lemmy frontend constantly breaks but everyone's really chill and really gay.

My main account is on the piracy instance. So it's fine. I'm fine.

@Madbrad200

Sounds like we're going to need an instance to be hosted outside of the reach of US copywrong law
