“Unremoval of Piracy Communities” https://lemmy.world/post/6018317
This post needs to be updated to reflect the current policy.
Six months later, a new Removal of piracy communities announcement confirmed that these communities had been removed. !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, which was the most popular piracy community, is still inaccessible to lemmy.world users. This is misleading: users see the old post, sign-up, and then find out they cannot access the community.
Please edit the original post to include the new removal announcement.


So you run your own instance and federate with other instances as you please? How are you hosting it / is it doable via docker?
Yes I use docker, I have documented my effort here https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=services%3Alemmy
It was pretty easy and require zero maintenance, just remember to update the containers. Space utiliztion and resources are pretty low, depending on how many communities you subscribe.
Also, I host it at home (with public reachable ip of course)
Yes, you can use docker: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html
I recommend using a VPS with wireguard and a cheap used workstation like a Dell Optiplex for the actual hosting. That way you can forward all ports without your ISP knowing.
Rad, tyvm. I’ve got a proxmox server at home running wireguard so I’ll give it a hoon on that. Thanks again.
Thanks will look into this.
