Lemmy.world is turning vanilla. They closed the shrooms community too!

Welp, I guess that's it for me, I'm not looking to have my hand held while I access information. I can decide for myself what is and is not acceptable on my feed. Maybe .world is just feeling the crunch and they need to thin out the numbers? It's a shame either way.

Same this explains why I haven't seen any shrooms posts. If I wanted to be treated like a child I'd use Reddit

It's not because they want to nanny you, it's because they can't afford the legal fees.

This is going to be a problem for any instance that gets big enough to be noticed by copyright holders or law enforcement. The legal issues will start to pile up.

That's fair, didn't consider that at the time
