They will be forever be remembered in our hearts for how well they ran the instance!

One of the saddest things to realize when something or someone dies or disappears ... is that you have moved up in the line for things or people to die or disappear

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Unless they were planning to kill you, in which case you've dropped down that list

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

That makes me feel better

Could be cool to have a variant with the names of the different instances

I can't believe you didn't give us the cat!

It’d be cool if there was a flare or “it’s the fuzz!” contingent wherein it just emails all users on an instance they’re being shut down, here’s your exported file, here’s a list of like-minded instances that pass the vibe check.

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ones that shut down, or ones to migrate to?

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 days ago

The remaining ones, like SJW, Db0, Lemmy.ca, lemmy.zip, etc.

Glad to see you chose this instance! :D

I would love to volunteer to become a mod there but you can already reserve a spot for a post about me on power tripping bastards. What a purge they need.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago

it was due to lack of admins, i dont think mods were the issue. the admins got burnt out from all the stress.

Here's the post from our Admin on what happened: https://feddit.org/post/13613230

[–] dylanmorgan@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

Thank you for sharing the update!

[–] DoPeopleLookHere@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Saw a post saying the owner does plan to fix it, but it's a problem he can't fix remotely, and is out of town in work for a while, so it may be a few weeks before it's fixed.

[–] dylanmorgan@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

Thanks for the update, too bad it’ll be a while but I’m glad it’s not a permanent issue

[–] PirateFrog@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

We will! Unfortunately there's just no way to fix the problem until the server owner gets back home in a few weeks. But we're absolutely comin' back.

Admin burnout.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

lack of admins.
