I really liked lemm.ee because it didn't defederate from the radical socialist and communist spectrum of political speech.

But the other issue with a bigger instance like lemm.ee going down is that as long as communities can't be moved (including users and content) to other instances, the lemmy project will fail. Because then only centralization in a few big instances is viable, and those big instances are going to become valuable and sold to plutocrats.

Wherever you guys migrate, please stop concentrating the userbase around lemmy.world, that's exactly what we're trying to avoid with Lemmy to begin with. The best thing you can do is go to https://join-lemmy.org/ and choose a server that's not in the top 10 or so. This will also help avoid things like the admins/mods burning out

Thank you to all the admins and donators who kept lemm.ee going.

I'll be honest i don't get what people differentiate so much about instances. most of the time i don't even notice what instance people I'm talking to are from, what instance the community in browsing is from, what instance the meme I'm viewing is from... is it about the software you're using that you're so aware of these things?

I'm an .ee refugee. I just hope this stuff doesn't become the norm where instances get shut down

Oh …..oh God, why!!! Why!? It’s too soon!!! 😭😩

Thank you, not just for showing respect and appreciation to the people behind Lemm.ee but because these posts are a magnet for the kind of trolls everyone should block before migrating elsewhere. 👌

too soon!

Lemm.ee was my home instance. I will miss it dearly. I wasn't as active as I probably could have been, but I'm still sad.

Why? What is going on?

You're not crying, I'm crying!

It was great while it lasted, and I thank those that ran it. A breath of fresh air after initially being on an instance that decided to nanny its users by defederating from instances for no good reasons.

I have a backup account on sdf.org, so I'm now using that as my main instance. Thanks to those who run it.

Fellow lemm.ee refugee!

Thank you to the lemm.ee admins and mods for everything. I will miss the defederation policy the most!

So what about all the valuble content in the Communities posted?

lemmyee grew too fast for its own good, with the reddit purges.

I'm sorry but the best is dbzero. Lemm.ee was a damn good instance too though

Shit I'm out of the loop, is my account being deleted or something?
