RiF shutting down, deleted my account on the 12th and cited it in the "why are you doing this?" Section. I doubt it even saw human eyes but if you want something to change you have to be willing to give it up 100%. Anything less and u/spez has already won.
Lemmy.world is a nice place and it's getting pretty big. I hope other instances keep up. I'd enjoy seeing four or five main instances with dozens of smaller ones for specific use cases propping up the content aggregation side of the fediverse into a viable option. Mastodon already has the community size they need to be self sustaining IMO.
Hell if YouTube dumpsters it soon it might actually get the web 3 we really want to see off the ground.
