The first tragedy of Lemmy
The first tragedy was feddit.de dying after the admin got disappeared in North Korea
Wait what?
It's a popular meme on feddit.org. The admin disappeared on a trip to an unspecified Asian country and the instance died. He hasn't been heard from since, so this is clearly the only logical explanation.
Are we sure he "disappeared on a trip to an unspecified asian country"? Or did he just lost the motivation to run the instance further?
No, but that was the last time anyone has heard from him.
Maybe he messed up the database and leave. Just an idea I had after doing the same today at work.
What? Really?
Nah he was joking. But the admin is still missing, we don't know what happened to him.
If you count kbin as Lemmy then I think that counts. Head dev ran into health problems.
Is kbin no more
Yeah, it's rebranded to Mbin now.
*forked to Mbin now.
Uh, yeah, that's part of the tragedy, silly! If it was still kbin it'd be because the original dev was still around and okay.
That's where I entered the fediverse. I was there when the question about not pooping for an extended time was asked. Good times. Sad to see kbin is no more.
Mbin is alive and well though!
