Not sure if this is the right place to post, but when the reddit protests were happening, I used Lemmy for a bit then decided to detox from "social media" for a while till now. Am I misinterpreting the activity here?

Oh yeah, there were a whole bunch of issues early on. I'd completely forgotten about that particular incident. I think some of the instances had to wipe several weeks of their image caches over it. I forget what the exact solution was, but apparently there's some technical aspect to preventing such things that's been implemented now.

dbzer0 is kind of 'the' piracy instance. Run by an anarchist, a good egg, db0.

.world here is kind of the 'normie' instance, very left-wing by US standards, but centrist by European standards.
