Comment on Lemmy.world seems to have banned the largest piracy community on Lemmy.

  No. Every community is hosted by a server, just as every user account is. Removing a community is similar to banning a user.

    So it just means that lemmy.world users can no longer see that specific community, right?

      No, it means the community no longer functions and most posts to it aren’t available on other servers either. You can view some remnants of it on other servers, but I’m not sure what will happen if you try to post to them.

        No that’s not correct because the community they banned was not on their instance.

        All this does is prevent Lemmy.World users from using our seeing the community. Everyone else is unaffected.

        It’s the other way around, you linked another community. The correct community, visible from SJW: sh.itjust.works/c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
