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

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.

  I misunderstood which community was being discussed. You’re correct.
  
  A server banning a community it hosts effectively destroys that community
  
  A server banning a community it does not host makes that server’s users unable to interact with it
  
  That’s very similar to banning a user.

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

  Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
