It’s 30th of June. Lemm.ee is shutting down now.
im pretty sure it was having issues on the 29th
Estonia, so it’s already the 30th there
pretty sure sunaurus is an Estonian.
Ah. My instance reports the last activity from lemm.ee from 45mins ago… So that’d be June 30th, 00:14 Estonian time. And the main page forwards to join-lemmy.org now. Looks like the shutdown to me.
Also, .ee is the TLD for Estonia.
well yes, i am estonian
It just redirects to https://join-lemmy.org/ for me
That’s pretty smart of the admins, actually. Thankful they thought of that.
oh, now it does
interesting 🤔
Not really, the admins and just about every active community on there announced a month ago that they were shutting down.
I think op was saying it’s interesting that it redirects rather than just an error
That’s not really interesting. DNS changes don’t propagate instantly. It’s likely OPs DNS server was still pointing to the old server even though the domain redirect had already been set by the owners.
So you are the arbiter of interesting now?
I wasn’t affected by this directly, but from what I saw it was all handled extremely well - lots of notice so users could choose new instances and mods could coordinate moving communities elsewhere. Makes me optimistic for the fediverse.

As a former lemmeezen, RIP, F, it was a good trip, quite decent service, but now it’s time to spread out.
db0 is being nice so far, and I even got an account on my country’s lemmy.
How’s dbz?
Has both a piracy and a privacy community, which is nice and probably leads to fun mishaps / mistypings. It’s pretty lean to federate to and fro as well, same with the UI.
Just about the only negative I can consider is their position pro AI, but I can live with that, the world is pretty close to the end anyway.
Confirm is ded. I moved from there. RIP.

Same. at least users of lemm.ee were given a lot of notice in advance so they could prep
Currently in between .zip and dbzer0 seeing which vibe is right
True story I actually meant to switch to .zip and I had both it and dbzer0 open in tabs for a few days (deciding between them) and on d-day for .ee I opened one and signed in and did the verification… and then realized where I was. And actually I’m happy with my accidental choice. It’s rad here.
How’s zip so far?
It’s ok I just don’t like how they handle images. When I click on an image it redirects to open in a browser (on mobile) or new tab (on desktop). Dbzer0 doesn’t do this. I suspect they handle images more like lemm.ee did.
Oh I hear you…. I didn’t think about that. World is heavily moderated and switching to another instance opens me up to more aggressive personalities.
What happened? Did the instance maintainer just get sick of running it?
The admin team burned out
Bummer - sucks to lose a good server
and the estonian community was on there too, and my account on there.
Refuge here, moved to joined a new server, couldn’t get my subscriptions moved over so I just resubscribed to each one manually, annoying but not the end of the world.
I am looking into the idea of hosting my own instance on something like a $5 linod just to make sure this never happens again. But I don’t even know if it’s worth it, or possible with that. You can tell I’ve only had the idea not the motivation.
i also had to move instances and the estonian language community. (to lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz, lemmy.blahaj.zone might be defederated from it)
Refugee families 🚣
I miss it.
Same, it was a good instance.
it still show up on search engine results lol i wonder hows that gonna work out now when people click to see a post and see its been shutdown
Sadge. It was a pretty solid instance.
… as someone whos considering switching out of world my eyes are open.
Done did their final
sudo docker compose down
