This has happened once before and they reversed it. But they said this last time too:

The discussions that have happened in various threads on Lemmy make it very clear that removing the communites before we announced our intent to remove them is not the level of transparency the community expects, and that as stewards of this community we need to be extremely transparent before we do this again in the future as well as make sure that we get feedback around what the planned changes are, because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

      Maybe you guys are getting downvoted for conflating Lemmy on the fediverse as a whole with Lemmy.World.

      These actions don’t affect anyone not on Lemmy.world, assuming db0 federates with you, !piracy is still there for you

      yep I got downvoted, as expected. More proof. What’s a surprise. Just like Reddit

      Where have I heard it before? If my memory serves me right, it was very popular cope on another discussion platform. What a surprise. Just like Reddit.
