With reddit banning fosscad/diy related subs, folks are seeking alternatives. I'll try to keep a list of the more active ones in this thread, and of course we welcome content here as well.

i'm wondering at which point lemmy is gonna need some lawyers. and how we might want to defend ourselves.

Ideally, they shouldn't. There is nothing illegal about designing a firearm or firearm accessories. Manufacturing them depends on your location and applicable laws, but they're the same laws that govern store-bought or private transaction purchase of commercially manufactured arms.

Lemmy, being decentralized and community driven, has no culpability for the discussion of lawful and (at least in the US) protected activities.

Even discussion of unlawful activities are protected by the US 1st amendment. But it does depend on how much people stand up for that right.
