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
Lemmy is totally open to vote manipulation. If I want to harass you, I can create accounts on multiple instances and downvote every post or comment you make with 100s of accounts. That might be a little obvious, but you can totally swing policital discussions with a small network of accounts here (just give everything pro palestina 40 upvotes and downvote every pro israel post 50 downvotes) and local admins have no method of checking that you are using multiple accounts. All they get is the federated upvote.
And, well, the whole Nicole situation also shows that there are huge holes in spam protection.
