    Unfortunately the latter instance was recently defederated by lemmy.world

      Yea … lemmy.world is probably not the “everything” instance some people were hoping … but more the “vanilla” instance (which also has a place IMO).

          Completely unrelated to the topic but isn’t it strange how vanilla has somehow become a negative? Vanilla ice cream being the default is because pretty much everyone enjoys vanilla. It’s a fantastic (albeit now very common) flavour.

            High quality vanilla ice cream is easily the best. I’m talking, no eggs, very dense, no carrageenan or other crap like that, and actual vanilla bean. The stuff that tastes like tea and flowers and vanilla. It’s amazing. Also expensive, but it’s a treat I only get every few months.

            I highly suggest trying to find an ice cream like this around if you even can.

      Not the entire instance, they only blocked the piracy community.

      It is a shame that once you’ve signed up for a community you’re not allowed to make a user account on any other instance.

        Yeah. And it’s a shame when they “ban” something, there aren’t like hundreds of different instances that can still easily access that content.

        Some smart people should really come up with a decentralized federated system so these “bans” become total non-issues.

        Ah well, one can dream.

          Huh - a data network that routes traffic around missing or blocked nodes. That sounds like an advanced project from some kind of Defense agency. Someone should patent it - an Interconnected Network; I’ll bet it would be super popular. I wonder what they’d call it.

        I haven’t used lemmy.world in a few weeks as it’s always down when I want to use it. Went back to my standby.

      Heard about it. That’s a shame. There’s really nothing illegal there. Admins of my instance make a community voting before defederating.

      I think I read somewhere that’s it’s possible to migrate your account to another instance. The idea of Lemmy is that we’re not at the mercy of someone’s whims.

        It is not possible currently to migrate an account. There are tools that let you migrate eg. Your list of subscribed communities, but your posts and comments can’t go with you.
