It's weird seeing otherwise normal working class people rush to defend admins, moderators, governments and authorities all the time in situations like this. I'm imagining some college kids working at starbucks or grocery stores picking up their phone in between customers posting replies championing copyright law. It's embarrassing

As an administrator of many different public-facing services I'm always going to defend other admins right to moderate their services in whatever manner makes them comfortable, even if I don't agree with their decision.
Ridiculous. My alt has already become my main due to the outages. Now I’m never going back.
What the heck?
Seems like my backup account is about to be my main account after all LMAO.
For legal reasons? Isn't lemmy.world hosted somewhere else but the USA?
This is bullshit honestly, I hope they back up from this decision.... Unlike Beehaw defederating from others because of light reasons.
Hah, just joined that yesterday.
Guess I should get the blood flowing on my accounts on some other instances.
At the moment clicking on the links of the defedereted instances opens the instance in the browser.
I hope clients/apps like Sync/Connect/Summit/Infinity etc give us the feature to browse these defedereted instances even if we logged into lemmy.world
I know you can't post/comment/save, but for many, ability to browse would be enough.
A toggle in the settings for this feature would be enough.
Thanks for posting this so I knew to subscribe to the community on a different instance!
And here I am.
Wow. Well here I was wondering if I should stick with kbin or switch back to lemmy.world. Guess this makes the decision for me.
