Because a couple weeks ago, the lemm.ee crew made a post asking for donations
They didn’t, that was a post asking to donate to lemmy, the software.
You cannot possibly convice me that didn’t somehow influence this decision to shutdown the instance.
I can because it’s completely irrelevant, and what stopped this instance seems to have nothing to do with the development, but rather to do with the amount of volunteers and their work load.

Iirc the request for donations was a repost from .ml the instance run by the devs of lemmy software, not a request by the admins of lemm.ee for support.

Same post. There is a link from that post to the ml post. In your link the admin says money is good for lemm.ee donate to ml.

No, that post is a request from the lemm.ee admins to donate to Lemmy, the software. Not to donate to lemm.ee. You’re talking about the same post.

Yea I never said specifically to donate to .ee, dingus. I said "asking for donations". You're missing my point.
