Are there others?

Also, it seems like a lot, does anyone know why they all went down at the same time?

That’s for sharing, that’s unfortunate.

I think long term there might be 20-50 instances willing to deal with that kind of crap rather than the 1000s there are now

This just shows why lemmy instances need paid full time staff IMO.

Of course not, just long term donation models. I would be happy to pay a few bucks to cover my (and a few other users’) annual costs to the server once a year.

We have a problem over at feddit.uk, the sole admin has gone missing and no one has been able to contact him. All we wanted is for a few more people to be made admins then problems could be solved. A new server/instance is going to be created and hopefully everyone on feddit can move over. Unless the admin comes back, it will fall behind in updates and become defederated. This happened once a few weeks ago by lemmy.world but we managed to convince them it was in error and they federated us back in.

I see that the admin came back and now there’s a few admins there and all is well 👍

More an update for others, since I expect you already know!

Thank you yes. The original admin, for whatever reason, made an appearance and as you say, created more admins who use the server a lot more.

Everything should continue as normal. They were incredibly close to launching a new instance as well.

The initial enthusiasm is wearing off.

Check out these graphs (scroll down) https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy. They don’t show October yet, but there are some downward trends visible.

As a trader, I would say this is a minor correction and we really should not read much into it. :) (of course, this is not a financial graph, but I’ve seen the similar patterns of impulse/correction in many graphs that measure opinion and/or human activity)

Came from reddit and I’m still here. Maybe I’m the only one planning to stick around, but probably not.

This seems less about users bailing and more about instance admins deciding to do so. The latter have a much higher level of overhead and stress to deal with, so it makes sense to see as the highs of the Reddit protests fade out.

I usually check https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats, which shows a constant number of servers, which is why I got confused

I know, I contacted @realcaseyrollins@narwhal.city to see if they had any preference on where to create a new movies community.

I was thinking about lemm.ee. There is !games@sh.itjust.works which is quite popular, so it would be nice to have a general interest community on lemm.ee as well.

Created https://metacritics.zone a couple of days ago. I would be happy to create the community there.

Interesting, but I’m not sure people would like to have Reddit comments there. Hopefully movies are an interesting enough topic to have people commenting there themselves

Just realized that narwhal.city is Lotide and not Lemmy, so maybe the message got lost in between

My guess is just that interest has been lost. The admin at pornlemmy.com is even trying to sell it off to someone.

Sell??? Is a Lemmy instance actually profitable?

They’ve actually put some of their own custom code and stuff into it, but no I don’t think it would be worth buying it. Using another UI achieves all of the tweaks they created.

That’s not great for user privacy - having a database of people’s kinks up for sale is not a headline that will help the Lemmy project. Hopefully everyone’s sensible enough to have anonymous alt accounts for their embarrassing Lemmy usage.
