Iβve seen nothing about this until this post so thank you. Iβm using Voyager on iOS. It has somehow shielded me from this reality. Which instance should I join instead? I chose lemm.ee because they didnβt defederate other instances as much as most others seem to do.

Welcome!
Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.
And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome π€π

MODERATORS
Lemmy.zip and dbzer0 get recommended often for having similar federation stances.
Happy to help!
https://lemmy.zip/ is a solid choice. Similar moderation policy than lemm.ee.
Monthly reports: https://lemmy.zip/post/39959863
Lots of lemm.ee users moving there: https://lemmy.zip/post/40323214
All good now, thanks again :)
Enjoy lemmy.zip!
Thanks friend, Iβll jump on lemmy.zip if theyβll have me. 2 million unique visitors in a month is more than respectable.
Make sure and subscribe to the "meta" community on whatever new instance you choose. That's where stuff like this is gonna be posted, that's where the lemm.ee shutdown was first announced.
I donβt subscribe to anything, I just browse All, sorted by top 6 hours. Every post I see is from a different micro community and instance so I never saw the point of curating a subscription list like I did on Reddit. Thanks anyways!
I do the exact same. The meta community is the only one I subscribe to. Makes it easier to check it periodically for announcements.
I asked this question a while ago here https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/37809092/18820669 and got some more-or-less helpful answers.
Hmm, as long as the comms local to lemm.ee have moved and they all have a pinned post stating where they moved to, I wouldn't worry about it too much.
!lego@lemm.ee is still open, I posted a message yesterday about the move, someone still made two posts here today.
That's the real issue in this case IMO. It might just be they are busy. But really contributors like you that are very very active helping other users and contributors, I really appreciate the effort!
I will use it until it stops working, and then I will grieve
I'm just lazy. I'll swap over in the next few days. Probably...
I haven't switched yet but I don't see the point I have until the end of the month why would I bother doing the move now
As long as you're aware, that's good
Doing it before the 30th has the advantage of being able to export subscriptions and import them into the new account. I guess that's not possible anymore when it shuts down.
In my case, yes I am worried I'm lazy enough that I won't switch to a new account in time.
Well it doesn't really matter whether we switch now or on July 1st, I guess. Only good thing about doing it now is the possibility to export subscriptions and import them into the new account.
Switching now allows you to indeed troubleshoot the migration of your settings. It works most of the time, but it can be a bit clunky
Soooo isn't there anyone willing to take over?
Yikes
Some people tend to get on Lemmy once every few days.
Sometimes I wonder. Could we send out a mass PM to everyone on lemm.ee about this?
Not sure how that would be perceived
βJust a reminder, your instance is shutting down in two days hereβs a link to the post explaining. You can make an account on another instance and continue to interact with lemmyβ
The other issue is that ideally we would need the lemm.ee admins to send that, but I'm not sure they want to interact with the site before it shuts down.
Yeahβ¦
Maybe we just need to make a couple more front page memes about lemm.ee
That will do the trick. Warning you will not see bean memes past June 30.
Yep just lazy. I've already joined another instance but not switched yet.
Just being lazy setting up a new account, probably on zip
Some communities seem to be going on as if it's normal. I notice this in the feeds when I find new lemm.ee communities I haven't added.
Isn't it normal for us to pretend everything is ok while the apocalypse is upon us?
If they can't be bothered to read the stickied post that they all can see, then what else are you going to do for them?
I'll be honest, if I was off Lemmy for the week it was initially announced, I probably would have missed it. I haven't seen any notification in my app, or come across the sticky in my normal browsing.
The only way you'd never see the sticky is if you only browse Subscribed and are not subbed to c/Meta. Every other browsing option shows the sticky.
I browse all. My app will show it if I browse local.
I usually only use Subscribed
The pinned post is only visible in the Local feed, not Subscribed or Local: https://lemm.ee/
It's not guaranteed how some apps deal with it either.
Bringing it to the lemm.ee people you seem could be a way: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/47084070/19534238
