Too all the .ee users going down with the ship 🫡

Still a lot of people’s logging in at 1.1k per day.

Leave me alone, I'm a chronic procrastinator.
I setup my new account on a new instance a bit ago but want to stick it out to the end on this one!
- One last hurrah for the ride 🥂
- Same same. I have another Lemmy and my PieFed.
  Logged into PieFed with the new Voyager beta!
- same.
I'm not leavin' until I have to!
I know...
- Don’t want to upset the river flow.
  Gotta make the ux as smooth as possible.
What's this screenshot from?
- It’s from the Mlem app in the instances section on the search tab.
🙋

They were good people!

we had a good run

Ugh, still need to make a new account...

Don't delay. My registration for a new instance took a couple days to get approved.
Have you at least backed up your subscriptions/blocks?
- ... Maybe.
Sameeeee...

change da world

my final message

goodbye

edit i moved to: @gnawmon@ttrpg.network

so inspiring 🙏🙏

Written from my new home

I will forever miss my .ee account, but life must go on I suppose

Why are they closing .ee?
- Ledericas beat me to it but here is the post explaining all of it https://lemm.ee/post/65824884
- lack of admins, to moderate the many communities, especially from trolls and spammers, bots. they couldnt replace the ones that step down or disappeared since they have been asking.

Still waiting on news from .zip. I applied weeks ago, never got an email. Ah, well, I'm trying out piefed while I wait.

Hey! Can you double check its not in your spam folder?
If there's nothing, then please send an email over to hello@lemmy.zip, include your username, and we can have a look for you!
- Yeah, nothing! I'll send over the email, thanks!
- While you’re there, it could be nice if you could answer my email
  It’s been 3 weeks now
Message @demigodrick@lemmy.zip to look into it. I know they got slammed but it shouldn't take that long.
- Thanks!

I boarded the ship just mere months ago. It was a fun cruise while it lasted. Gentlefolk, it has been an honour scrolling with you. 🎻🫡

Already found a new home.

I'll be on here til the day the site is down 🫡

(I have a piefed acct but the app I use doesn't fully support it yet)

I feel your pain, also wanted to migrate to piefed but eventually didn't (at least for now) because I like voyager better then interstellar.
- Good news for you, voyager has (experimental) support on piefed! It is rough now but it is there.

Relocated as soon as I can after the announcement. The only ones (of mine) coming down with the ee ship are my posts and comments--probably.

Honestly don't know if I'll keep using Lemmy. Been 2+ years now that Lemmy has been the only social media I use and can't say that its doing anything for me other than being a outlet for my shitposting. Lemmy feels pretty empty. People dont DM. There aren't many coms with core regulars that create a community. Saying anything beyond basic obvious sarcasm opens you to being banned from entire instances. There aren't many instances that allow the user to decide what they want to see, using the tools that lemmy provides, and defederate or block entire instances.

In 2025 Lemmy is at like 50k active users. Still no community or connection like the forums I used in 2005 with 500 users. Still no community or connection like the subreddits I used in 2015 with 5k users.

Kinda thinking the internet really is dead, even on our outlier of federated open source social media.

I do like how you are free to comment on anything without people caring whether you know them not, and i like how it's not private communication but open for anyone to participate.
I have the opposite problem I receive so many dms on Lemmy and Matrix as I need to respond to them eventually but then the call of the void to post more gets me. Everyone is so talkative here.
I also tend to see the same individuals on a regular basis, I really do feel the companionship. Like when I talk about Manitoba with ValueSubtracted@startrek.website.
Why would you want people to DM you?
- Personal connection. Building relationships. Growing community. Realizing we're intricate humans and have a lot to share. Nobody has ever DMed me. I've DM a handful of people but it's obviously such a foreign concept that it never lasts.
  Some of my closest friends I made via DM/pm on small forums 20 years ago.
I usually see the same people on
!casualconversation@piefed.social
!television@piefed.social
!movies@piefed.social
!fedigrow@lemmy.zip
If it makes you feel any better, satire is dead and we’re trending toward either nuclear, biological, or AI-based human extinction
- So cheery
Sounds like you want something closer to a Discord than a Reddit-clone.

I just wish I knew real love before this happened. Also I regret selling my Legos.

Is it too late to migrate my account there and become an hero

I would be using mbin if it wasn't for the feeds. It will be a good chance to check out instances that block others that I normally have to by hand. lemm.ee definitely was not the instance for that, but not that I'm complaining.

i already made an account on .today, and worlds, but likely will only use today. and i will probably be making another lemmy instance account somewhere else, plus piefed eventually. im usisng this ee til ee closes.

Goodbye old account, and thanks for all the fun times.
