The reddit piracy community was in a neverending struggle to avoid being banned from the site, constantly censoring and restricting what people could post to keep the reddit admins happy. What's the situation with that sort of thing on lemmy? Is it a free for all? Same situation as back there? Something in between? I guess we may all find out together...

Genuinely it would be best for someone to make a piracy-focused instance in a country that has loose copyright laws. Then we can have separate communities for each type of piracy. i.e. a main piracy.co.ck website, then a !piracy community just for general piracy discussion and news, communities for books (!books, !textbooks), communities for movies (!movies, !moviesespañol, !moviesbollywood), individual communities for different game consoles (!pc, !switch, !ps3, !amstradcpc), and so on and so forth.

To help with server load we could even maybe set it up so nobody can make accounts on it and can only make posts from accounts on other servers? I don't know if that would help or is a possible configuration but it's worth a thought I think.

The /r/piracy subreddit is already blacked out and directing to https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy. I don't know the history of that instance but it seems to be mostly piracy-focused communities. Could be what you're talking about has happened already.
