After this post I had some discussions with lemmy.ml admins about how their plans to prepare for the new influx of users, and I wasn't filled with confidence.

So I decided to strike out on my own and setup my own lemmy instance. This should ensure that discussions should continue normally during the blackout at least.

It's not just for piracy though. It also includes communities for my other interests in Generative AI and video game creation. So if you want to talk about that cool stuff, head on over!

If you already have an account here, you can continue using it by accessing the new community via https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/[email protected]
