I'm not leavin' until I have to!

Still waiting on news from .zip. I applied weeks ago, never got an email. Ah, well, I'm trying out piefed while I wait.

Why are they closing .ee?

Message @demigodrick@lemmy.zip to look into it.
I know they got slammed but it shouldn't take that long.

Sameeeee...

Same same. I have another Lemmy and my PieFed.

Logged into PieFed with the new Voyager beta!

i already made an account on .today, and worlds, but likely will only use today. and i will probably be making another lemmy instance account somewhere else, plus piefed eventually. im usisng this ee til ee closes.

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 know

As of now:

New user registrations are disabled
Creating new communities is disabled

What 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 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.

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

... Maybe.

Hey! Can you double check its not in your spam folder?

If there's nothing, then please send an email over to hello@lemmy.zip, include your username, and we can have a look for you!

While you’re there, it could be nice if you could answer my email

It’s been 3 weeks now

I usually see the same people on

• !casualconversation@piefed.social
• !television@piefed.social
• !movies@piefed.social
• !fedigrow@lemmy.zip

That is a very normal bio you have there.

The modlog is quite something too: https://lemmy.zip/modlog?userId=19172645

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
