Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month

More specifically, trying to migrate my project to another instance before .ee shuts down would be a herculean task AFAIK, especially with my having significant new health issues recently.

I can help with that, if needed. I’m going to have to migrate my own communities in the coming weeks, so I can help with yours too.

Thanks, fellas! I guess the first need would certainly be to fully archive the community in question, i.e.: lemm.ee/c/eurographicnovels.

Yes, I understand it’s already and naturally backed up across the FV as a whole, but I would think that having direct backups would help for any number of reasons, especially when it came to running a new sub somewhere, being able to edit previous content as needed.

As part of that, backing up the community’s many images specifically hosted at .ee would be another priority I should think.

Also, just want to point out that the community is indeed archived at Archive.Org, but last I checked, that tends to only preserve the post / comment text.

Anyway, that’s for starters. Me, I have absolutely no idea at the moment if I’m going to be able to help run the place after migration, but at the very least I can hopefully find someone willing to do that. Anyway, I guess that’s good for starters!

  Hm, if you need to migrate all of the content to a new community, that might require quite some work indeed.
  
  What about gradually moving content over? lemmy.world/c/moviesandtv@lemmy.film content is still there, and lemmy.film went down more than a year ago

  Hmm. Yeah, if anyone’s posted images there to the pict-rs instance on lemm.ee, those will presumably be going down too.

  Yeah, like, you just posted this image yesterday. Like, post text federates, but other instances won’t have copies of the images.
