So what about all the valuble content in the Communities posted?
Community migration is possible on Piefed https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/45876492?scrollToComments=true
Posts that propagated to other communities will stay on servers.
Images will break though.
Oh ……oh God, why!!! Why!? It’s too soon!!! 😭😩Shit I’m out of the loop, is my account being deleted or something?
Yes. End of june.
Out of loop? We had posts and posts about lemm.ee going down, how did you missed it?
Anyway, end of June lemm.ee is going down, which means it won’t be accessible! If you want to access lemmy after that, you have to find a new instance. Have a look here to search for a new instance.Don’t forget to export your profile settings from settings > Import/Export Settings > export.
Been busy with moving and stuff. This is the first I saw anything. Thanks for the info.
I’m tearing up :'(
Thx for all the severing!
<3
NOoooooooo :(
lemm.ee has been hands down my favourite instance, it’s genuinely depressing that it’s going.
I’m an .ee refugee. I just hope this stuff doesn’t become the norm where instances get shut down
too soon!
Definitely
Thank you to all the admins and donators who kept lemm.ee going.
Take lemmy.today instead!
Sir, you took the words right out of my mouth when read the news
i made an account yesterday, and imported my prferences over.
Are you saying lemmy.today is no good?
You’re not crying, I’m crying!
Why? What is going on?
lemm.ee is shutting down, due to admin burnout.
Isn’t the whole point of lemmy is you don’t “have” to monitor it with admins?
No, the point is that it’s not controlled by any one megacorp or nation state. Being an open social media platform it’s still going to have shitty people trying to attack its infrastructure to try to silence others or tilt voting the way they want or just chaotically troll the hell out of people. Admins are needed to protect it from that.
No, the point of Lemmy is to be decentralized and non-corporate. It has nothing to do with monitoring or moderating.
I do see why you’re saying that, but a server without admins would rapidly become a breeding ground for entirely illegal discussions, and it would be at least defederated pretty rapidly
Yeah but like who’s gonna get mad if there’s no corporate to report to. There’s no ad space to sell. So you are spending energy moderation to what end?
I’m just trying to understand the setup I guess. I just assumed people started lemmy to get away from over moderation on reddit. I been here since the api crackdown on reddit.
oh yea thats why alot of them dissociated with the tankies, and some illegal porn ones, especially csam.
No? What?
moderating is for mods. admins are there to keep lemmy.ee running. much like reddit still needs admins to run things, minus thier ability to ban accounts arbitrarily.
You just made me realise a non-zero amount of people have this view and post/behave however they want - leading to instance closures and defederations
Probably people getting down voted like crazy for asking simple questions isn’t really good for retention or growth. Late stage reddit behavior. Guess lemmy is going to speed run all of the downside of reddit.
It’s wise to not give a fuck about downvotes. They can’t hurt you. You can’t make it right for everyone. And that’s okay. Sometimes you say stuff that agrees with a couple of people. Sometimes you don’t. Questions included, as some might see those as a statement. You’re free to do the same. Isn’t democracy beautiful?
i think the point is that there is no single lemmy server - so if you want to put in the work and set up a server you never check up on, yeah sure whatever this isn’t legal advice.
But also, if people wanna set up a space that bans the most obnoxious behavior while cultivating real conversation, they can do that too.
most of the admins left due to stress, or lack of hiring. thats why its shutting down.
Yeah no.
to be fair, in my experance outside of .ml .ee was one of the least toxic general instance around, and I am worried .world the most toxic one I experence, will grow
.ml is way more toxic than .world.
.world is the most toxic by far
Nooooooooooooooooooo
pffffffftttttt no.
