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).

An official announcement has been made:

Is there an automated way to move my account and all content to another instance?

no

the only thing that exists is LASIM which will allow to transfert your communities, blocks and profile settings from one account to an other (but you need to create the new account first)

Keep getting an error when I go to download - "Cannot write file - access is denied", and this is after it says that login is successful.

Not sure what OS you are using but make sure you have write permissions in the folder you've extracted the app to. If you're on Windows you might want to try running it as administrator.

Thanks, that did the trick! (Additionally, moved the file from downloads to a new folder in windows)

I think the answer is not yet, but unless you're some kind of fediverse celebrity it shouldn't be that burdensome, right?

No but I believe there is something on GitHub to help subscribe to the same communities once you create a new account.
