I think this was discussed in c/piracy - Lemmy can still get DMCAs, so people recommend obfuscating your links via base64 encoding if you'd like to post a link.

doubt it because lemmy is very obscure right now. Also that's how r/piracy got big in the first place.
The way social media (in this case lemmy) becoming big and maintaining it are 2 different things.. The strategy changes once you become big, but until then there should be no problem with being more helpful.
dbzer0 has specifically made it a rule to not post unencoded links. He can still get hit with DMCAs.
If the only request is to encode with base64 im down to it.
While I can't condone spreading piracy links, if you were to obfuscate them I will pretend I never saw them.
Now I think about it, it's better if we use base64 encoding. At least the DMCA bots can't crawl here then.
