Walled garden platforms doing what walled garden platforms do I suppose...

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.

And also the maintainers being too trusting. They openly discussed pirate ROMs in the server and such.
