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

pffffffftttttt no.

Yeah no.

Isn't the whole point of lemmy is you don't "have" to monitor it with admins?

No, the point of Lemmy is to be decentralized and non-corporate. It has nothing to do with monitoring or moderating.

No, the point is that it's not controlled by any one megacorp or nation state. Being an open social media platform it's still going to have shitty people trying to attack its infrastructure to try to silence others or tilt voting the way they want or just chaotically troll the hell out of people. Admins are needed to protect it from that.

I do see why you're saying that, but a server without admins would rapidly become a breeding ground for entirely illegal discussions, and it would be at least defederated pretty rapidly

isn't there like 26 more days to go?

You just made me realise a non-zero amount of people have this view and post/behave however they want - leading to instance closures and defederations

i made an account yesterday, and imported my prferences over.

most of the admins left due to stress, or lack of hiring. thats why its shutting down.

moderating is for mods. admins are there to keep lemmy.ee running. much like reddit still needs admins to run things, minus thier ability to ban accounts arbitrarily.

No? What?

oh yea thats why alot of them dissociated with the tankies, and some illegal porn ones, especially csam.

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

"We'll meet again. Dunno where. Dunno when."

to be fair, in my experance outside of .ml .ee was one of the least toxic general instance around, and I am worried .world the most toxic one I experence, will grow

Sir, you took the words right out of my mouth when read the news
