Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month
Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoLet’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.

Those users are the same as in our universe for lemm.ee as a user instance. They stir the same dramas, create the same number of alts, violate rules in a similar way.
That was available to the lemm.ee admins in our scenario as well. They preferred to shut the instance down rather than reduce.
