Which instance did you switch to? Have you considered PieFed? Could you bring your communities with you? Do you miss it?

And the others, do you miss lemm.ee communities that died out where you couldn’t find a replacement for?

    I considered PieFed, but ended up sticking with Lemmy. I think Lemmy feels less complicated, there’s just less features, which I prefer. No hate for PieFed, of course, I think it’s awesome!

    db0 has been great! I couldn’t bring my communities with me, but it’s fine… I didn’t really have much anyway.

    I do miss lemm.ee, because their very generalist maxims really resonated with me. I really don’t think there’s a true spiritual substitute.

      I joined dbzer0 for mostly the same reasons. It has the same laissez-faire defederation policies as Lemm.ee, it’s a great community of like-minded progressive anarchists, etc. I had already been considering switching prior to the announcement of lemm.ee closing down just because some frequent-posting Lemmy community members were there like Blaze and the man dbzer0 himself. The actual transition itself was trivial, I exported my community subscriptions and user tags and imported them to the new account without issue. I’m very happy with the result.

        Yeah, the transition process is pretty much seamless, if you aren’t a mod.

        I think Blaze actually posts from PieFed now? Not sure…

          That’s what I’ve been seeing as well. I just first heard of dbzer0 from their handle when they were posting from there.
