That's disappointing but thank you for giving us a place to call 'home' in the fediverse for as long as you did. I appreciate your time and effort doing so.

If anyone needs help finding a new instance here are some resources:
join-lemmy.org/instances
lemmy.fediverse.observer/list
lemmyverse.net/

My personal general purpose instance recommendations & server locations:
feddit.de - Germany
sopuli.xyz - Finland
lemmy.ca - Canada
sh.itjust.works - Canada

I started using slrpnk.net while lemmy 0.19 was causing federation issues back in late December early January but that's an instance intended for people interested in or involved with the Solarpunk movement so it's not going to be an ideal place for everyone. Any of the general purpose instances I've mentioned are great options that I've used in the past.

Thanks for the recommendations. feddit.de seems like the natural choice, but I might go with sopuli.xyz purely because I don't want local to be 90% ich_iel posts ๐Ÿ˜…

Haha that's understandable! Well, either option should be a good choice. They've both been around since 2021 and their admins are quite active so they appear to be stable long-term instances. According to lemmy.fediverse.observer feddit.de has better uptime but in my (admittedly limited) real-world use I can't recall ever running into prolonged downtime on sopuli.xyz.
