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

That's kind of sad but also isn't surprising. They didn't exactly put in a huge amount of effort to maintain it, nor did they put in much effort to grow it or make it appealing as a server for people to join.

That explains why despite it being around for a while I seem to have no opinion of it.

Edit: always sad to see an instance go however

The only positive thing I ever heard about lemmy.one is that they federate with Beehaw. At the time I was already skeptical of that being a good thing since Beehaw has harsh opinions on moderation and had already said they wished to exit the Fediverse. So I dismissed lemmy.one back then as being one of those unremarkable and poorly managed instances, and it seems I was largely right. It is still sad to see an instance leave like this.
