lemm.ee has shut down at 00:14 UTC.

unfortunately I realized too late that I have had hundreds of saved links to posts and comments from there, so I did not have enough time to save them, but anyways it is interesting that maybe a third of the post links I could try were dead. I think linkrot is happening much faster here than on reddit, even if just counting deleted posts.

The linkrot is real but not unexpected when anyone cat spin up and shut down instances. Nothing is forever

It's mostly not because of instance shutdown though. especially on lemmy, because lots of posts are readable elsewhere after shutdown.
