The largest piracy community is hosted over at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
lemmy.world has blocked it. It appears to have also blocked !piracy@lemmy.ml.
If this is a problem for you, I’d suggest migrating accounts using LASIM to an instance that doesn’t block it (such as lemm.ee).
edit:
An official announcement has been made:
Where do they do this? Do you have links? So far what I’ve seen is they comment on posts that go viral on their instances, as they’re allowed to do. I can’t say I’ve had any problems with Hexbear users.
Typically, it’s on any post that mentions China, Russia or Ukraine, especially on lemmy.ml. The defederation post on lemmy.ca (Link here) provides several examples of very poor behaviour by Hexbear users, and I can personally attest that it is worse than that, having seen it.
