Do you know when or why they blocked it?

It feels like every day I’m finding new annoyances with lemmy.world.

I mean, its piracy.

Fear of legal troubles would be my guess.

They'd have to be significantly involved with the community to be held responsible in any way - there's been a long-standing law that protects service providers from culpability for what their users actually do with their services.

Poker has all-in rules, which basically say if a player bets all their chips the other players can't force them to bet more chips by raising their own bets. This is crucial for the balance of the game - without it, the moment a player gets a lead they could simply force all the other players to fold and automatically win every single hand - not matter what the cards are.

The legal system does not work that way.
