Shit. I keep forgetting to switch instances again. Any suggestions on a decent replacement?

[–] lemmy@programming.dev 39 points 1 month ago

Lemmy.zip has a similar federation policy to lemm.ee

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Dbzer0, sopuli, literature.cafe.

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 18 points 1 month ago

Here's what I believe are the top considerations:

  1. See which instances are blocked just add /instances to the end of the site. Like: lemm.ee/instances or sopuli.xyz/instances

  2. Check out the "all" for the instance of that's important to you. Each all is different depending on your instance (it's based on what other users on the instance are doing).

I'm going to flip to PieFed since Voyager now has started beta support. I'll be on piefed.social

I just don't want to go yet...

lemme.ee is shutting down at the end of this month.

The admin team is understaffed and suffering from burnout.

You still have a few days to gracefully transition your account to another Lemmy instance.

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Wait is there a way for me to move this account or am I misreading phrasing

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

No, you can't move the existing account. But I think you can export your settings, including subscribed communities.

It might be a good idea to add a description to your lemm.ee account saying what your new account is, kinda like a forwarding address, because people will still be able to view your old account from their instances.

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That’s what I thought it just sounded like I could move the actual account

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago

No, the best you can do is, if you want people to know your new one, is edit your profile now with a link to your new account. Because your old posts and profile won't be gone when lemm.ee is gone.

[–] moonlight6205@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Take a backup from settings. It contains subscriptions, saved posts and blocks

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I didn’t know I could export save posts

Do I just go to the lemm.ee website and export that?

[–] moonlight6205@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Yes, go to site and into settings.

[–] feannag@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I believe you can export settings, subscriptions, etc and apply them to a new account. Not old post or comments or anything.

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah that’s what I thought it’s just they made it sound like I could export the actual account

[–] 93maddie94@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

I have a literature.cafe from even before my lemm.ee account, but it doesn’t federate with piefed (at least in any way that I’ve noticed). Several communities I follow switched to piefed so I wasn’t able to see or follow them with literature.cafe

[–] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 month ago

As someone who just switched, this isn't something you should sleep on. I tried another instance and it was insanely slow in comparison. You might need to try a couple of places to get it right.

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean, I don't really know what makes a great instance. Lemmy.ca has never made me regret my decision though?

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

That's because lemmy.ca is a great instance!

[–] scytale@lemmy.zip 9 points 1 month ago

Most of us moved to .zip. Some moved to db0 and piefed.

[–] perishthethought@piefed.social 8 points 1 month ago

I jumped to piedfed.social (and so from lemmy to piefed as well). The admin on my new instance is really great, reminds me of @sunarus back when I started on lemm.ee.

https://piefed.social/

Worth a look, I think, for all the great new features added to piefed, on top of what Lemmy (the server software) offers. Piefed is still compatible with Lemmy and the fediverse in general.

[–] juliebean@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

this one seems pretty decent and has a similarly sparse blocklist

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

I went .zip seems to have very similar vibe to .ee
