I’m old enough to remember a simpler time before lemm.ee was in the top 10 largest instances (it was 2 days ago when I signed up)

The sudden death of VLemmy and temporary closing of lemmy.world pushed a bunch of people here I think.

Did the admin say anything or just pulled the plug and vanished?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a lemmystery.

Really though, from what I've seen in other discussions surrounding it, it's a genuine mystery as at the time I'm writing this (and as far as I'm aware), there's been no further information on what happened with it, why it's offline, etc. Lots of speculation, but no direct info to go off of.

Indeed, no one has heard anything yet. It's very strange, I hope the VLemmy admin is ok.

Time sure flies when you're having fun!

And it was created only 9 days ago.

Funny, I got 9 days based on your oldest post! 😄

When did you create lemm.ee? Thanks for all hard work, by the way.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

According to my cake day, it was just over 1 month ago now

I'm a lemm.ee veteran! Yup, been here a whole 10 days now.

I just created an account there to avoid some of the lag from all the traffic. I know nothing about this instance, lol.
