I watched Enemy At The Gates yesterday and was thinking that there are distinct similarities with what's happening in Ukraine today.
Agreed. My wife came off her bike while we were riding together and if she hadn't been wearing a helmet I don't even want to think about the outcome. As it was she was knocked out cold, and lost her memory for several hours. There was a huge dent in her cycle helmet that would have been in her head instead if she hadn't been wearing it. Will always wear a helmet when cycling.
While it is true they are not directly responsible for these communities, they are linking to them through federation. As others have mentioned, lemmy.world is hosted in Germany where laws are stricter around linking to potentially illegal activities. They don't have the legal team available to them that Reddit do so obviously they want to protect themselves. If it's a problem to you, sign up with an instance that doesn't block that type of content.
So why is that a problem? The hosts of Lemmy.world aren't beholden to provide you with every resource available and at the same time potentially expose themselves to legal issues.
I suspect this won't be a popular opinion, but it seems strange to me that a lot of people are making a fuss about lemmy.world blocking communities that literally advocate for illegal practices. If you disagree with lemmy.world blocking piracy communities, where should they draw the line? Allow literally any community to be created irrespective of the legality of what its advocating for? I would presume (and hope) that you wouldn't have a problem with lemmy.world blocking CP communities for example?
The Fediverse can't function as a free-for-all. It has to have rules, and instances have to be able to police those rules for the betterment of the whole.
Loved Avenue 5 - shame it got cancelled.
Currently on my first - a Pixel 6 and I'm not sure I'd go back to a Galaxy which I always used to go for. The Pixel is quick and easy to use, takes great photos, and isn't plagued by bloatware.

What utopia is this that you get a choice of 12?!! I just checked and I get two options - red or orange.
Just wait for Musky to try and start suing people for using anything with "X" in the title/name.
