I stopped donating after they shut down the conservative community. I know many of the liberals stopped as well. They wanted a place to engage with conservatives and have meaningful discussions. Calling Elon's had gesture a nazi move just showed how bad the new admins were . 1. The photo was missed. 2. It was a joke meme from a liberal show. 3. Shutting down the forum over a missed, joke meme just showed they didn't want any real discussions; they wanted an echo chamber. They just wanted to determine what is the truth. Many of the liberals were pissed because it showed they could be next. That if they disagreed with an admin, they wouldn't be warned, they would have their content deleted or be banned.
The fediverse should be place for open discussions and not echo chambers.
Worse than shutting down, they let it be taken over by an anti-conservative troll and turned into a joke meme community. I blocked them after that. So until your post, I had no idea they were shutting down. lol
Ella was a well-known admin there but they haven't posted in last two months, so I don't know if they are still around or not.
Ella was one of the main causes as to why they are shutting down, that and bird boy. You can't put radical people in charge of your moderate instance and not expect it to blow up
Yep, Ella was totally on board with giving the conservative community over to that troll. But I notice they haven't posted in two months. So maybe they are one of the admins stepping away from it because of stress?
So to be honest, I'm sorta celebrating Lemm.ee's demise. Just like they celebrated ruining the conservative community.
It's been hilarious watching people searching for a new instance saying they want an instance as "open" as Lemm.ee was. lol
It was open under prior management. He did a good job of keeping it open. I have no idea where he sat politically and he defended the conservative community many times. He liked the diversity of ideas. Not sure he agreed with the conversations but he felt they should happen. That is why I like him so much. Ideas should be discussed. He also called people out on the Nazis claims.
Sucks that he stepped away. But since he's not running it any more, then good riddance
I mean that is my general opinion as well. He did a bang-up job, then handed it to people who crushed it.
