Streaming TV costs now higher than cable, as 'crash' finally hits

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control. Rules: 1) Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon. 2) No spam posting. 3) Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear. 4) Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click. 5) Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda). 6) No trolling. 7) No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

It wasn’t initially announced. Later they made a statement via discord 🙄
It’s only piracy communities they banned though. Not entire instances.
I guess I can understand their reasoning somewhat as the way Lemmy servers fetches data from the fediverse can become a liability, but I’m disappointed about the process and communication.
That said, I tried switching to some of the lesser restricted instances today, but I just don’t think I can be bothered to spend enough time blocking all the $hit there, so I’ll probably stay here still.
That looks nice, I’ll run it on a few accounts anyways, nice to have backups available without having to start from scratch.
However, Lemmy.World was already defederated from a few instances and from the looks of it I would have to do add a huge amount of new blocks to stay sane on a completely unfiltered instance.
