Comment on Who owns the servers for Lemmy?
TWeaK@lemm.ee 8 months agolike recently the piracy community was removed due to concern over possible legal hassles
To be clear, lemmy.dbzer0.com wasn’t removed, it was defederated by lemmy.world. That only affects lemmy.world, it’s still federated with other instances.

So by defederated, that means since I have a lemmy.world account, I can’t subscribe to the piracy community? But if I made another account on a different instance I could?

Yes, exactly. For example, I can still see the main Piracy community at dbzer0 with lemm.ee/c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, however if you try to go to the lemmy.world version at lemmy.world/c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com it turns up an error.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
