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

  Doesn’t really solve the issue, admins will all want to manage an instance for groups rather than instance for users as that would avoid much of the drama.

  And that is bad why…?

    The people that want to be in charge of large groups of people are often the people you least want to be under.

      This argument applies more to “instance with lots of users and groups” (what we have now) than “communities with lots of users on topic-specific instances”, so I don’t think this is the problem here.

        Let’s say we are in a different universe where lemm.ee is a users instance, and not a groups instances.

        Drama still happens involving lemm.ee users.
        Admins still get burnt out.
        They still shut down the instance.

        So indeed the communities wouldn’t have to move, but the 5.5k monthly active users of Lemm.ee (out of 47k total) would still have to find a new instance.
