If I was logged into several instances at once in the client and seeing the composite feed and then could choose instance when replying or posting (with some set default, like from: field in e-mail clients) lemmy.world could ban piracy all it wants and it’d still be in my feed without me having to leave it or change instances.
Sure, but why risk it when this is essentially a volunteer project?
I’m not saying they’re right. I’m just saying I understand their concerns. Others don’t care and allow piracy content just fine.
