If the admin has bailed on this place then it might be time to jump ship. It's only a matter of time until they pull the plug.
The domain is fully paid up through to next year and there's no reason to suspect that the hosting will stop any time soon.
We've contacted the Admin through a few routes and we are hoping that gets his attention. We can then put into place other Admins and make sure everything is financial secure and doesn't just rely on one individual.
I tried contacting him here a while back. So far no luck. But I'm not gonna stalk him to get his own instance in order.. So I hope he pops up!
Yeah, we've given it out best shot, it's up to Tom now.
There is a recent change in Lemmy's 0.19 release which would allow the import and export of user profile data, which in theory could allow easier migration between servers.

Hopefully we won't have to resort to that. Also, it would require the admin to upgrade to Lemmy 0.19, which may not be guaranteed.
