    .world straight up blocks /c/piracy and “preemptively” blocked hexbear.

      They blocked piracy for like a day over a year ago and then unblocked it when the users were clearly against it.

      Hexbear being blocked is a good thing and overwhelmingly supported by the users.

      1. blocking hexbear is a good idea
      2. world unblocked priacy instances over a year ago with the notable exception of the db0 instance

          just checked if I can see piracy on lemmy.world and yes you’re correct. Though it seems only the db0 instance was banned in particular weirdly.

          I still stand by point 1 though. Hexbear as an instance has been profile-blocked by me.
