It is not out of the question that I may have a very minor case of serious brain damage

Not sure why the Linux community is convinced macOS is better than Windows. macOS has the same big issues Windows has (Spyware, ads, and the inability to delete the built in browser) while having worse issues like not supporting openGL/Vulkan, not allowing the user to install old apps, the inability to install hardware, and the small issue of only a select few Linux distros that work with it. Windows isn’t good, but it’s still better than macOS in most regards.
Why is everyone in the comments section oversimplifying this complex issue? Great reminder that that’s what politics is now, blaming one side and naming the other side pure.
Just upgrade back to Windows 10.
Fact is, they have good reasons to. Lemmy likely was threatened by a larger industry that could’ve thrown millions of dollars around in a court to get Lemmy taken down. The guys running Lemmy wouldn’t have enough money to win a lawsuit, the website could easily be taken down by a larger entity. When it comes to losing the community or blocking a couple communities, it’s an easy choice. In summary, they’re just trying to save the website by avoiding future lawsuits, and these communities still exist but can’t be accessed on Lemmy itself.
The website has the right to choose when you can use it unfortunately. If you don’t like the decision, don’t use it. Or you could just use a content blocker if the cookies are the issue.
Use a user agent spoof extension on Firefox, should trick the website into thinking it’s running chrome.
