This post serves as notice that Lemmy.one will be shutting down in 90 days.
Unfortunately, the moderation features in Lemmy never progressed to the point required to continue maintaining this service, and Lemmy simply does not have the userbase to justify the cost of this service. Myself and the moderation team apologize for the inconvenience this will cause.
This is sad news. Hopefully the comms can migrate to other smaller instances.
Edit: just saw this
as this is a fairly active community we just wanted to let you know that this community is no longer federating with Lemmy.World due to defederation from lemmy.one for lack of moderation.
Our announcement can be found here: https://lemmy.world/post/28173093
We recommend migrating to a community on an instance that is maintained better.
I guess it’s been an issue. I think the lemmy.one meant they needed better administration features
AFAIK they would remain tied to your old account. The instances copy everything off each other. So if reddthat.com would go down, your comment would still show as EndlessNightmare@reddthath.com If you were to make a new account on a different instance it would not have your posts and comments “attached” to it.
This could be an issue if you rely on reputation for something that is tied to your account. In that sense having some mechanism to proof the old account to be owned by you would be good.
