overview for can

Can't log in to the instance, or make new top level posts,, but navigating directly to an old link still apparently works and you can reply and everything. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Keep in mind these are only visible to users of your instance.

When an instance like lemm.ee shuts down, what happens to the posts and comments? by can in c/[email protected]

The lemm.ee instance will shut down at the end of the month, where should the community move ? by can in c/[email protected]

lemm.ee as an instance is over. But the users could ~~move over there~~ register on a piefed instance and communities can seemingly be properly transferred

this could be piefed's moment.

Piefed currently allows community transfers!

Piefed even allows for transferring of communities (posts and all).

Sad, but I never really did much after taking over this community anyway.

Hey everyone

We’re really sorry to say this, but lemm.ee will be shutting down on June 30, 2025.

What you need to know

As of now:

New user registrations are disabled

Creating new communities is disabled

What you should do:

You can export your settings at https://lemm.ee/settings to take them with you to another instance.

If you're moving to another instance, consider adding a note to your lemm.ee profile with your new username. Your old profile will still be visible from other instances even after we go offline.

Alternatively, if you want to delete your lemm.ee profile, now is the best time to do it, so the deletion can federate out before we go offline.

If you're one of the folks supporting us with a recurring donation, please remember to cancel it (Ko-Fi donations should have been cancelled automatically already). Our leftover funds are already enough to cover our bills for next month, so we can keep things running without any more support.

Because of how Lemmy is built, everything posted on lemm.ee will still be accessible from other instances, even after we go offline.

Why this is happening

The key reason is that we just don’t have enough people on the admin team to keep the place running. Most of the admin team has stepped down, mostly due to burnout, and finding replacements hasn’t worked out.

The sad reality is that while there are a lot of great people on Lemmy, there are also some who use the platform to attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project. Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this takes a mental toll. Please understand why our admins chose to step down, and be kind to the admins on whatever instance you decide to join.
