Welp, I guess that's it for me, I'm not looking to have my hand held while I access information. I can decide for myself what is and is not acceptable on my feed. Maybe .world is just feeling the crunch and they need to thin out the numbers? It's a shame either way.
But that's why federation is great. If you don't like how one instance handles stuff you can move to any other instance that suits you or even host your own.
They just don't have the money to pay the lawyers that you need if you want to host that kind of content without shutting the whole thing down to move it on occasion.
It's not because they want to nanny you, it's because they can't afford the legal fees.
This is going to be a problem for any instance that gets big enough to be noticed by copyright holders or law enforcement. The legal issues will start to pile up.
