If it makes you feel any better, satire is dead and we’re trending toward either nuclear, biological, or AI-based human extinction
So cheery

Message @demigodrick@lemmy.zip to look into it.

Why are they closing .ee?
lack of admins, to moderate the many communities, especially from trolls and spammers, bots. they couldnt replace the ones that step down or disappeared since they have been asking.

Ledericas beat me to it but here is the post explaining all of it https://lemm.ee/post/65824884

Hey everyone
We’re really sorry to say this, but lemm.ee will be shutting down on June 30, 2025.
What you need to knowAs of now:
New user registrations are disabled Creating new communities is disabledWhat 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 happeningThe 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.
We know this sucks. We’re genuinely sorry it’s ending like this. Thank you to everyone who spent time here and helped make it better.
– lemm.ee team

Honestly don't know if I'll keep using Lemmy. Been 2+ years now that Lemmy has been the only social media I use and can't say that its doing anything for me other than being a outlet for my shitposting. Lemmy feels pretty empty. People dont DM. There aren't many coms with core regulars that create a community. Saying anything beyond basic obvious sarcasm opens you to being banned from entire instances. There aren't many instances that allow the user to decide what they want to see, using the tools that lemmy provides, and defederate or block entire instances.
In 2025 Lemmy is at like 50k active users. Still no community or connection like the forums I used in 2005 with 500 users. Still no community or connection like the subreddits I used in 2015 with 5k users.
Kinda thinking the internet really is dead, even on our outlier of federated open source social media.
I usually see the same people on

I boarded the ship just mere months ago. It was a fun cruise while it lasted. Gentlefolk, it has been an honour scrolling with you.

I would be using mbin if it wasn't for the feeds. It will be a good chance to check out instances that block others that I normally have to by hand. lemm.ee definitely was not the instance for that, but not that I'm complaining.

That’s entirely related to the reason I posted the comment above so… yea
