      This has nothing to do with being a walled platform. All these maintainers of all these lemmy servers would have to do the exact same thing if Nintendo came to them. And if they refused then Nintendo could go to the server host. And if that didn’t work you would end up in court. It has nothing to do with walled gardens and everything to do with Nintendo abusing dmca.

        yes but then the community would move to another lemmy host and it would turn into a game of whack a mole for Nintendo. There is no other Discord host.

          I mean, Suyu is already jumping to new locations on the internet, so whack a mole/hydra is still in effect

        True but any other company with the size to do so would chuck the request in the trash until the court orders came.
