Lemm.ee is shutting down. Sad to see them go but I was expecting this after the main admin stepped down. Once the Power hungry admins replaced him, the whole vibe changed and the admins went power hungry. They didn’t follow the vision of the original admin and crushed the site in a few months.
Sad, but let’s all have a moment of silence for lemm.ee
6 months is all it took. Six months ago, @sunaurus@lemm.ee stepped down. 4 months ago, they banned the conservative community because of a picture of Elon Musk doing the Cory Booker salute. And now, they’re shutting down entirely. It was a good run, but all good things come to an end.
It’s sad to see them go. I wish the users and the former admin the best of luck.
Worse than that, they let a troll take it over and turn it into an anti-conservative community. And they knew he was gonna do that that.
I’m all for someone making an anti-conservative community, just make your own new community. Don’t take over an existing conservative community do to that. That’s high-level censorship.
I’m not sad to see them go at all after how that all went down.
Before that BS, the sub was decent. But it went to shit real quick around that time.
When you create an echo chamber and have strange, arbitrary rules, you end up destroying your base. Sunaurus got that, he rocked, he has a good vision for fediverse. When you try to micromanage and don’t let people have conversations, you will burn yourself out but also kill the community.
Exactly! I’m sad that he left, I’m not sad that Lemm.ee is going away. They stopped believing in diversity of opinions.
