    can you elaborate? or should I assume that means I can’t follow “communities” from privacy instances?

      *piracy

      Yes, that’s one of the restrictions. I also think you can’t see your users’ comments. (perhaps posts too, I am uncertain)

      If you’re not interested in following something there or it’s not a topic you’re interested in, it’s alright. You could always create another account somewhere else or browse their instance anonymously.

      The good thing about Lemmy is that you can always switch to another instance in the future. I started for a few months on .world and then moved to lemmy.blahaj.zone.

      Welcome! I hope you have a great time here and I’m glad people are moving :)

        They only specifically block the piracy community on db0’s instance, to my knowledge. It’s definitely not a full instance ban anymore
