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

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.
