Can/How do you Import/Export your comments/replies?

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.

Lemm.ee has been an amazing instance.

Loved the transparency, mods, community, and lemm.ee is easy to type out and remember

Sad day. Lemm.ee was by far my favorite instance and my home. Thanks admins for the hard work.

I have mostly just lurked here and wanted to come out of my shell to say thank you, admins, for all your hard work on this instance. You did a great job running this instance and I'll miss being the goblin hiding in the corner here.

Best of luck with your next endeavors.

Thank you so much for providing my home instance. Have enjoyed Lemm.ee the past two years.

This suuuucks. We need another big, general instance that doesn't defed everyone. But I get it, being an admin sounds like a lot of work or I would do it lol. Plus I don't have place for a server around here. Or do most admins just buy space from the cloud?

Oof owie, my instance

Damn, it was like the 2/3rd most active instance

https://lemmyverse.net/ to search for a new instance

The double edged sword of not defederating from other instances is that the worst instaces that most block will use your space to keep shoveling their bullshit to more people.

It creats a lot of extra work for the admins/mods

Managing a federated network comes with a lot of responsibility.

Farewell Lemm.ee, it was a good two years.

Thanks for your time. Take care of yourselves.

Shiiiit. What's the easiest way to migrate all my communities quickly???

In this situation, a user on lemm.ee would have to export their settings and create a new account elsewhere, right? Do their comments and post histories get exported too? I joined Lemmy only a month ago; this is the first time seeing an instance go down, so I'd appreciate it if someone here could clarify that.

Thanks, admins, your efforts and patience have been greatly appreciated.

That is sad to hear. Thanks for the all the work admins.

Now is a good time to check out PieFed.

It also has much better mod tools, so it will make life easier for mods

That’s depressing news, but I get it.

Any suggestions on alternative instances?

Thanks for all your work, you ran a great instance and I appreciate all the effort you put into it

Sad to hear this. I liked the people I’ve met from lemm.ee and the hands-off approach to defederation that the instance had.

I was here for just a few days but thanks for providing the service
