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...

    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.

    because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

    It's funny because someone on their team started banning people from that thread for disagreeing with their stance then when called out for it they quietly changed the instance bans for community bans, in an awesome display of pure pettiness one would normally see on Reddit.

    When I described the previous removal as LW having a feud with dbzer0, that was why.

    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.
