## Hey everyone We’re really sorry to say this, but lemm.ee [http://lemm.ee]
will be shutting down on June 30, 2025. ### What you need to know As of now: -
New user registrations are disabled - Creating new communities is disabled What
you should do: - You can export your settings at https://lemm.ee/settings
[https://lemm.ee/settings] to take them with you to another instance. - If
you’re moving to another instance, consider adding a note to your lemm.ee
[http://lemm.ee] profile with your new username. Your old profile will still be
visible from other instances even after we go offline. - Alternatively, if you
want to delete your lemm.ee [http://lemm.ee] profile, now is the best time to do
it, so the deletion can federate out before we go offline. - If you’re one of
the folks supporting us with a recurring donation, please remember to cancel it
(Ko-Fi donations should have been cancelled automatically already). Our leftover
funds are already enough to cover our bills for next month, so we can keep
things running without any more support. Because of how Lemmy is built,
everything posted on lemm.ee [http://lemm.ee] will still be accessible from
other instances, even after we go offline. ## Why this is happening The key
reason is that we just don’t have enough people on the admin team to keep the
place running. Most of the admin team has stepped down, mostly due to burnout,
and finding replacements hasn’t worked out. The sad reality is that while there
are a lot of great people on Lemmy, there are also some who use the platform to
attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project.
Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this
takes a mental toll. Please understand why our admins chose to step down, and be
kind to the admins on whatever instance you decide to join. — We know this
sucks. We’re genuinely sorry it’s ending like this. Thank you to everyone who
spent time here and helped make it better. – lemm.ee [http://lemm.ee] team

Im going to be honest with you, the worst instance I generally interact with is .world, I have never made a secret I am a communist, see username, but that is by far the worst instnce in my experience both of if I say anything “evil tankie” and they are also one of the worst at the evidence for me being a communist is not I have red army, but because I am from.ml
I admit this might be skewed because .world is bigger, but people from .ee tended to be more amenable,
Personal experience I guess.
.world is indeed not much better.
When recently .ml got federated again here and the reactions were mostly negative to extremely hostile.
But it’s good that we’re here, for some balance and post facts and opinions they otherwise don’t see.
Cheers
