What would be the best thing to do to help keep lemmy.world up? Donate? Servers? What is the best way to help?

      Vlemmy was .net

      They federated with an instance that was hosting content that was illegal in the country vlemmy was hosted in.

        Ok thanks. It’s kind of hard to keep track of all servers in the fediverse, so hopefully these illegal hosting servers would be highlighted by the community somehow.

          The one that caused vlemmy trouble is pretty well known at this point for welcoming animated content that is illegal in many countries. They were too careless.

            Thank you. I think we should keep an eye out for those instances and maintain some list about them.
