Anyone else having issues federating with that instance? It looks like it only wants to talk to lemmy.ml, I can't seem to add it to my instance. I've added other instances just fine 🤔
It’s nice to have backups but doesn’t this just fracture the already small lemmy piracy community even more? Maybe running it as a mirror without the possibility to engage would be better.

Yes, but lemmy.ml went down today, before the blackout, and way ahead of the API shutdown. It WILL go down again due to the load.
This might fragment the community, but a dedicated instance by a r/Piracy mod is better than relying on one that could go down at any moment. Eventually, people will just use the new one and it won't matter. I think this is a good call.
This is part of the reason I made my own instance. It's now my responsibility to keep my own account functioning, not someone else's. Anyone's server going down won't prevent me from using Lemmy or making comments.
