It's a lot...

Yes. It’s shutting down at the end of the month.
Aaaargh, I can already feel my power waning... All these moments will be lost in time, and so on.
On a lighter and more serious note, though, thanks to all the admins and mods that made this ride possible. You are the best. -
Oh fuck it. I think I'll just stop using Lemmy when this instance shuts down. This is the part of the fediverse that really sucks. All the comments, saved posts etc are gone because why? A couple of guys couldn't handle a few troll messages? Sorry, if we want an independent site, away from the hands of venture capitalists, you're gonna have to tough it out and deal with a few nasty messages.

No they aren't. Clearly they don't have to, as they are in fact shutting the instance.
They're providing a service, as volunteers, for free, and asking nothing in return. By definition they get to set the terms on which they do that, and it is astonishingly selfish for you to expect them to do so under conditions that are clearly untenable, and blame them for this outcome when they cannot continue.
No. If you want an independent site, away from the hands of venture capitalists, you should've stepped up and volunteered to admin when they needed help.

Not necessarily @lemm.ee trolls; trolls from other instances starting shit in @lemm.ee communities, and they just don't have enough admins to handle things
This is my first time hearing about this.
-
So then won’t this problem just move to another instance if .ee closes?
No, because most of the other instances are probably more prepared.

I think my new instance won't appreciate me migrating FuckableCars here...

I just migrated a community from Lemmy to Piefed using the migration feature, it worked quite well - Divisions by zero

Nice, good luck with the migration! I'll be keeping an eye out where to subscribe

If you're talking about the saved comments and posts on your account, doing the data export comes with a JSON list of all the posts and comments you've saved

admins got burnt out from stress, and yes its also due to the significant uptick in trolls, and propagands spreading, hard to control all of it, with no automatic filters, like reddit.
-
Not a shoddy rep, just that it grew so large so fast with not enough admin volunteers. All of the big ones are constantly getting hit by these sad losers who need therapy
yea the purges from reddit, accounts for the sudden jump in users. and many of them were indiscriminately banned, plus now you have the increase of the trolls.

not really, lemmyee was more defederated, so it allowed basically anyone. the other ones have blocked off some of the problematic instances. ,ML, hexbear, grad users were all becoming too common recently i had to block them.
-
The thing I like most about lemm.ee is the defederation policy. Supposedly lemmy.zip is similar in that regard so that’s where I ended up.
i went on lemmy today, and considered .ca even if im not a canadian. i made one for world, but dint realize they blocked alot of the nasty instances.
-
I'm a bit slow. Where are the commies going?
they are fine, .ml, hexbear and lemmygrad has thier space for them. the problem is there were operating from there and trolling on lemmyee.

its not a few troll messages. most of the admins couldnt be replaced, i suspect moderation isnt thier only problem.

Is there a tool for comparing Lemmy instances in regards to their federation policies?

The whole thing made me paranoid so I made accounts on multiple instances.

Don't go. -

More than a bit, bub.

I’m now on a few different instances. I was not expecting do have to do something like this, but I understand.
Thank you very much to the admins and mods of lemm.ee. I was on there for at least a year or so, and I will definitely miss the open federation they had.
