The first tragedy of Lemmy
If you count kbin as Lemmy then I think that counts. Head dev ran into health problems.
Where do I go?
Lemm.ee made me feel welcome and cozy in this new experience that was Lemmy. Admins and users I frequently noticed were chill and seemed to be overall decent folk. Appreciate everyone that made that instance what it was, thank you all and see you around on/from other instances.
so long and thanks for all the
fishbeansI feel like I have to comment to every lemm.ee user i see because they’ll be gone soon
will you remember me once I’m gone?
it was a good run.
i was initially drawn to it because of the “ee” reminding me of ee cummings, the poet.
i love science and such so i’ve drifted on over to mander.xyz
reading through this thread it is newly apparent that all posts and comments will be deleted. :(
see you space cowboy

They should stay on other federated instances, except if they’re explicitly removed as long as the instance is still online.
Shit. I keep forgetting to switch instances again. Any suggestions on a decent replacement?
As someone who just switched, this isn’t something you should sleep on. I tried another instance and it was insanely slow in comparison. You might need to try a couple of places to get it right.
Lemmy.zip has a similar federation policy to lemm.ee
Dbzer0, sopuli, literature.cafe.
Here’s what I believe are the top considerations:
-
See which instances are blocked just add /instances to the end of the site. Like: lemm.ee/instances or sopuli.xyz/instances
-
Check out the “all” for the instance of that’s important to you. Each all is different depending on your instance (it’s based on what other users on the instance are doing).
I’m going to flip to PieFed since Voyager now has started beta support. I’ll be on piefed.social
I just don’t want to go yet…

Can anyone eli5?
lemme.ee is shutting down at the end of this month.
The admin team is understaffed and suffering from burnout.
You still have a few days to gracefully transition your account to another Lemmy instance.
Wait is there a way for me to move this account or am I misreading phrasing
Take a backup from settings. It contains subscriptions, saved posts and blocks
I didn’t know I could export save posts
Do I just go to the lemm.ee website and export that?
No, you can’t move the existing account. But I think you can export your settings, including subscribed communities.
It might be a good idea to add a description to your lemm.ee account saying what your new account is, kinda like a forwarding address, because people will still be able to view your old account from their instances.
That’s what I thought it just sounded like I could move the actual account
No, the best you can do is, if you want people to know your new one, is edit your profile now with a link to your new account. Because your old posts and profile won’t be gone when lemm.ee is gone.
I believe you can export settings, subscriptions, etc and apply them to a new account. Not old post or comments or anything.
Yeah that’s what I thought it’s just they made it sound like I could export the actual account
I went .zip seems to have very similar vibe to .ee
I jumped to piedfed.social (and so from lemmy to piefed as well). The admin on my new instance is really great, reminds me of @sunarus back when I started on lemm.ee.
Worth a look, I think, for all the great new features added to piefed, on top of what Lemmy (the server software) offers. Piefed is still compatible with Lemmy and the fediverse in general.
I mean, I don’t really know what makes a great instance. Lemmy.ca has never made me regret my decision though?
That’s because lemmy.ca is a great instance!
Most of us moved to .zip. Some moved to db0 and piefed.
this one seems pretty decent and has a similarly sparse blocklist
Finally switched tonight
rip
