Hello everyone.

As reported by lemm.ee's staff team at !meta@lemm.ee, the instance will be shut down by the end of this month and that means communities along with it, including !ask@lemm.ee.

It's been nice to have you all in this community. Farewell.

I've got to say, a lot of the more negative interactions I've had have been at lem.ee, so I'm not really that sad about it.

It just closed down? Wow. I didn't know that. You're telling me now for the first time. It led an amazing life. What else can you say? It was an amazing website. Whether you agreed or not, it was an amazing website who led an amazing life. I'm actually saddened to hear that. I am sadden to hear that. Thank you very much.

Lmao best response

I basically called this a couple of years ago when that whole API thing was going on with Reddit, if your only objection to Reddit is some petty bullshit like that, these libs aren't going to spend their time on a knockoff Reddit when they can just go back to the real reddit-logo.

Hexbear outlived them because this is a site run by posters, and posters never logout

[–] blame@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago

i logout to delete my account and start a fresh even worse account

Wow. I didn’t know that. I just — you’re telling me now for the first time.

It led an amazing life. What else can you say? It was an amazing server. Whether you agree or not, it was an amazing server who led an amazing life. I’m actually saddened to hear that. I am saddened to hear that.

One of the all time great lib dunking enshrined in this comment thread was fueled by a lem.ee poster. I will always be thankful to this guy from .ee for providing magnificent entertainment.

gawd that lib had stamina

[–] blame@hexbear.net 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

are they interested in selling the domain?

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 35 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Dude. We have the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

[–] trinicorn@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

we do already have rentfr.ee

Guess the USAID money ran out.

[–] mathemachristian@hexbear.net 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It should have been storm.front instead. I liked lemm.ee it's how I met you all.

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago

Same. I'm pretty bummed about it.

Please let .world be next

Crab rave moment, I think there was about a 60% chance that if there was a lem.ee handle commenting here, it was some shitty take. so I'm not upset

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 30 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Better than .world, cmon now

[–] CommunistCuddlefish@hexbear.net 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Very true. I don't see .world though because they defederated from us, and alhamdulillah for that

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

preemptively, as a last resort!

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 13 points 1 day ago

What else could they have possibly done?!

Usually a know-nothing, vapid shittiness too

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 day ago

I feel like there were a few good blokes who were too lazy to switch instances though. .world was much worse

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 38 points 1 day ago

officer-down

Fucking lol

[–] roux@hexbear.net 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is there a reason why they are shutting down? I mean good riddance and all but just curious.

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 54 points 1 day ago (7 children)

admin burnout from running a general lemmy instance they said, which makes sense since ee attracted the second most redditors from the migration
