No I know that, I mean specifically he’s said to not dm him because ge probably won’t get to it.

fyi for anyone curious, they’ve targeted multiple other instances now

Looks like this thread is getting mass downvoted by bots btw

I seem to remember this coming up a lot where the users and other instance admins kept questioning the security of the site.

Lemmy in general or just world?

I can understand that instead of the others commenting, but I don’t really agree with the idea of them arbitrarily deciding they can do whatever they want with the community and punish the users who weren’t aware of that and don’t want to move and or check to another place.

Seems a bit barbaric and awkwardtheturtle esk imo to just do a bunch of stuff without asking the community if they’d like to switch, they just decided “no we’re going to close and you’re gonna like it” essentially lol

“I don’t get why are you so upset. It’s not a big deal.”

first off I’m not? I’m just confused why the entire modteam just refused to get everyone’s input and did what they wanted anyway which is why people left reddit in the first place.

Second, it’s not convenient to just close a community without anyone’s knowledge and punish the users who don’t want to move so suddenly.

“we’re keen to avoid unnecessary fragmentation for existing members and confusion for any newcomers.”

ah yes because locking the entire community without anyone’s knowledge and consent first isn’t totally insane and like a certain other platform we left from
