I made an account here FIRST on lemmy, but moved to world a week in or so because that was a more active instance
When they stupidly banned communities from here I came back and literally have said out loud that I'm unsure why I ever left
It's a perfect home for lemmy for me (a weird lurker who loves piracy and shrooms and whatnot) and the "is closing" scared the shit out of me lol
1000% this. It's nice to have a place where people are also interested in the weird shit that I like/care about like piracy/cannabis/etc. Additionally, most people I know don't give a shit about privacy and don't understand how wrong the "I don't have anything to hide so what do I care".
This was the only instance that I felt like I immediately identified with, so that being said, keep doing what you're doing OP.
I also had to reread the "is closing" part several times hoping I was reading it wrong.
It was exactly like that for me. In the beginning I felt like I missed a lot of stuff on world but then I came back because they sanitized everything. This is the perfect middleground for me and the piracy community was also my introduction to the fediverse.
