Cross posting this over here because of the obvious federation delay. If you’re already here, feel free to leave your comments on this thread instead of waiting for the 12-24h delay on kbin, but feel free to comment there should you wish.

    Tying into that: Kbin. We now know Ernest isn’t dead at least lol, so while the place may be (at the moment) in shambles the project does continue and the site appears to be safe, if sadly partially reliable. My intention was never going to include deleting this place cause my data hoarder ass doesn’t know the meaning of the word ‘delete’ so tl;dr~

    https://lemmy.zip/c/squaredcircle will become our new home…

    …but if it makes sense to all of you: https://kbin.social/m/SquaredCircle/ will become our backup.

    Realistically we shouldn’t need a backup with lemmy.zip from what I’ve seen. Bunch of us have been posting and commenting for days now (and as someone who has been using it in general for 6+ months off and on I’ve had little issues) but we’re all already here anyway and if Ernest is working on things then it would be a shame to toss this place in case it does get better. Easier to use it as a backup we may not need than build up a second community from scratch to confuse more people.


    So assuming that makes sense with everyone, we basically have two weeks left in the original time estimate left. It’s up to you all (if you haven’t moved over to the lemmy.zip community already) whether you wanna go all in (heh) now or wait out the 2 weeks. If anyone does wanna stay here for the next 2 weeks I’ll keep posting stuff across both communities but by the 18th at the latest I’ll be full time on the lemmy community and just keeping an eye here for spam now and then until we need it.
