PS that whole deal fucking sucked. I cant remember his name, but the guy who ran it seemed like a solid dude. eastern european of some ilk. I donated a few times through ko-fi. I didnt hear any stirrings of the bullshit he supposedly had to wind up dealing with. I cant fathom why someone would take time to fuck up something like a lemmy instance that someone was doing at a loss essentially
I think real life and the earlier days of lemmy moderation burned them out! It’s not easy running one of these things and a dude with good intentions may have underestimated the load.
I also started on lemm.ee so I know your pain.

Lemm.ee is dead. Long live lemmy.ee!
