As lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of the month, the community needs to find a new home instance.

The poll will be done via voting, you can vote for as many options as you want, but voting with multiple accounts will lead to all of your votes being discarded. Downvotes will be ignored.

Regardless of the choice, the live thread bot will be available.

The options to vote for are these:

  • [email protected] or alternatively [email protected]
    Pros:

    • Active and responsive admin
    • Instance dedicated to football
    • The instance is more or less already fully funded by paying users according to the owner.

    Cons:

    • Single point of failure in instance owner
    • Instance name is soccer for the first option
  • [email protected]
    Pros:

    • Similar instance to lemm.ee
    • Blaze and @[email protected] have volunteered as new moderators.

    Cons

    • More of the same, similar risk as lemm.ee
  • Create a new community at [email protected]
    Pros:

    • A more rapid developed reddit alternative that seems more in tune with integrating community requested features.
    • Both post and user flairs are currently supported.

    Cons:

    • Questionable long term scalability due to being built on top of python.
    • No/few app options
