What is this referencing in this particular case?

[–] Erika2rsis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 102 points 1 year ago (18 children)

As far as I understand, lemmy.world is banning/defederating piracy communities. This made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Appreciate the H2G2 reference 😌

I've never seen it shortened that way before. Is that common?

Quite, yes. Douglas Adams himself founded http://www.h2g2.com back in 1999.
