I would give it one more day just in case. But yeah, I'm already considering other instances and if I leave I'll stop my admittedly small monthly donation to SDF.
Its a pity because we had something beautiful here that was ruined by something so dumb. What instance do you think people will migrate to?
Has anyone tried getting to them via IRC?
I've asked on com if anyone has an emergency contact, awaiting if anyone does
This has their irc server info: https://sdf.org/?faq?CHAT?03
I was able to get on and ask, seems
membership@is the only one (most) people know ofAs in the email address membership@sdf.org? Can you ask how long they usually take to respond if you're still on and willing?
Aye, that address. I've emailed them before and have received replies within a day... I'm hoping they're not facing a personal emergency of their own
Sorry to hear. The writing was kind of on the wall for a while, as they've been radio silent for months.
If you like SDF because they didn't defederate anyone, then https://lemmy.today/instances is a good option
If you liked SDF for the "tech" side, then https://lemmy.zip/ . The reports on !home@lemmy.zip are always nice to see.
How is dbzero0?
Oh, good too. The admins are quite active, and work on other Lemmy tools like https://github.com/db0/threativore
You can have a look at the sidebar and see if you like it
I'll second this, and add lemm.ee as another quite-good instance overall.
Fantastic
Great honestly. Had no issues. It's a broader culture but everyone I spoke to there is usually chill and based af.
I mainly use SDF because of the services provided, specifically the MC server, though I admit I haven't been super active there lately. The culture here is also usually very nice. It's a shame this happened, and that the admins are just not here to fix the issue.
Indeed, but in your case you probably have as many alts as I do 😄
Oh yeah it's not actually a big problem for me to access other things. It's more an issue that people won't be able to access the SDF Minecraft community anymore, and the communities already here will likely be toast as well.
Mander doesn't defed either, which is why I chose it.
Very happy on zip. Made a lucky first choice!
