This post serves as notice that Lemmy.one will be shutting down in 90 days.

Unfortunately, the moderation features in Lemmy never progressed to the point required to continue maintaining this service, and Lemmy simply does not have the userbase to justify the cost of this service. Myself and the moderation team apologize for the inconvenience this will cause.

This is sad news. Hopefully the comms can migrate to other smaller instances.

Edit: just saw this

as this is a fairly active community we just wanted to let you know that this community is no longer federating with Lemmy.World due to defederation from lemmy.one for lack of moderation.

Our announcement can be found here: https://lemmy.world/post/28173093

We recommend migrating to a community on an instance that is maintained better.

I guess it's been an issue. I think the lemmy.one meant they needed better administration features

"Joining the fediverse isn't hard bro, your instance doesn't matter, just pick one."

"Stop using Lemmy.world, we need to redistribute to smaller instances."

The number of times I've heard these fucking lines when people discuss why Lemmy/the Fediverse isn't growing like corp-owned alternatives...

this wouldn't be so bad if you could easily transfer your account from one instance to another

Switching accounts over is a big issue for sure, but even bigger is when entire communities are lost. Those are much harder to switch over, both due to scale and moderation concerns.
