    I kind of agree, with the caveat that I think it’d be super cool if the existing dbzer0 members also checked out other communities on different instances and made Lemmy more popular. I feel like that would be a win-win.

    The more mainstream and well-known dbzer0 becomes, the more likely it is to have problems because of that.

      For this community in particular, I think having a “federated community” would be especially helpful. Piracy communities will inevitably be taken down, but distributing them across many federated communities turns it into a game of whack-a-mole.

      dbzer0 is no exception to this. There will be a time that the admin will start receiving DMCAs and will need to choose between complying and throwing themselves into legal jeopardy.

      Unfortunately, the lemmy project maintainers and lead devs seem largely uninterested in such a feature and I lack the skill necessary to implement it, so it’s down to an invested and skilled community member, if it ever happens.

      We already do :) It’s all federated so dbzer0 members can view/subscribe/participate in other Lemmy communities.
