Just my uninformed personal opinion, but the way I see it is that considering Lemmy isn't a corporation and isn't focused on ad revenue, I doubt we'll see the same tight strangulation of rules like we see on other sites. Reddit was a far more free platform in the early days, but once investors and capital growth entered the mix we saw a vast tightening of what was and wasn't accepted on the site. This is just my hope though, as I'm thoroughly enjoying the feeling of the "old" internet that Lemmy has given me since I joined last week.
I think the problem is that some random lemmy mod won't want to deal with DMCA takedowns and threats, so they will probably enforce it down, which is understandable.
Good point, hadn't considered the individual repurcussions.
