Why are people joining .world to begin with? The entire point of this is to decentralize. Joining the by far largest instance beats the entire purpose.

Join smaller ones like lemmy.one, lemmy.club, lemmings.world, lemmy.zip etc. We might need to start specifically recommending against .world and for general purpose instances like those.

Also, funny how even reddit allows r/Piracy but not .world lol

Lemmy.world is also notoriously mismanaged and has had dubious privacy issues in the past, such as their Discord situation regarding user messages

dubious privacy issues

They're also federated with threads so I wouldn't be surprised at all. I'm a fool for sticking around in there as long as I have.

What happened to the messages in their Discord?

What I heard was a bot to send in ip from certain instances
