The speed that this happened suggests they might have gotten spooked by something. Put down the pitchforks mates and give them a chance to explain first.

EDIT: Welp, I expected an explanation by now…

If there’s anything they should be spooked by, it’s the pitchforks!

Ill take a pitchfork in the guts any day if it keeps me away from being a debt slave to Disney for the rest of my life.

Don’t you guys have an admin chat group. Or at least you guys would have some way of keeping in touch since this has happened before.

We do, in fact. They never gave a heads-up, and none has responded until now. I found about this from this post

They’ve just posted.

It’s not a good explanation. The only thing that changed was their own minds.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they got some personally delivered letters from the legal department of a big media company, given that they blocked visibility to some magazines on other servers.

Per https://lemmy.world/post/13320356, they got a takedown notice and started going through everything with a fine toothed comb.
