It just closed down? Wow. I didn't know that. You're telling me now for the first time. It led an amazing life. What else can you say? It was an amazing website. Whether you agreed or not, it was an amazing website who led an amazing life. I'm actually saddened to hear that. I am sadden to hear that. Thank you very much.

Guess the USAID money ran out.
Please let .world be next
are they interested in selling the domain?
Dude. We have the opportunity to do the funniest thing.
we do already have rentfr.ee
Crab rave moment, I think there was about a 60% chance that if there was a lem.ee handle commenting here, it was some shitty take. so I'm not upset
Better than .world, cmon now
Very true. I don't see .world though because they defederated from us, and alhamdulillah for that
preemptively, as a last resort!
What else could they have possibly done?!
Usually a know-nothing, vapid shittiness too
I basically called this a couple of years ago when that whole API thing was going on with Reddit, if your only objection to Reddit is some petty bullshit like that, these libs aren't going to spend their time on a knockoff Reddit when they can just go back to the real .
Fucking lol
It should have been storm.front instead. I liked lemm.ee it's how I met you all.
Same. I'm pretty bummed about it.
.world is blaming Russia, lol.
One of the all time great lib dunking enshrined in this comment thread was fueled by a lem.ee poster. I will always be thankful to this guy from .ee for providing magnificent entertainment.
gawd that lib had stamina
Did they even say why? Lol
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.

Oof... did we strike a nerve? Well, at least they didn't defed...
I guess the DOGE cuts hit them
How come we got our funding back?
They forgot we exist. Shhh be careful.
We're like the Laos of shitposting sites lmfaooo
I read that as Laios and got excited
What's that, like the Lidl of Oceania?
Delicious in dungeon reference, Laios is the human in the party who just really likes to eat monsters
Oh right, I only got to like episode 4 lol
Can I join as an admin and steer the ship for a while?
Idk. I think it's for lemm.ee users only, plus, they closed registration so yeah, no, you can't, unfortunately
Why don't they just pull themselves up by their bootstraps?
Now as ever, bullying works
