Collapse

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.


Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.


RULES

1 - Remember the human

2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source

3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.

4 - No low effort, high volume and low relevance posts.

So, this ~~sub~~ community will be… collapsing?

No, this is not how federation works. The content will remain accessible. It is just annoying for those who used the lemm.ee instance directly. To people like me, who will now have to find a new home base.

Too subtle! They would have caught "sinking".

The endless jokes about /r/collapse and /c/collapse collapsing are so terribly original.

The name of the ~~sub~~ community is literally "collapse"…

OK joke's on me

PS was assuming clever reference to the Titanic sub

PPS: the Titanic SUBMARINE

:sigh:

Damn it, I feel like a digital refugee getting cast about.

[–] eleitl@lemm.ee 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah. And we'll lose subscribers, again.

Where next ? I guess it's one reasons people use .world

My main account is on slrpnk.net which has maintence issues :(

So far looking at lemmy.zip -- given https://lemmy.zip/post/40323214 seems I'm not the only one. lemmy.world as an option was discarded already when we moved from lemmy.ml to lemm.ee

Oh I get that but one reason i have an alt account on .world is it seems reliable.

I guess you could try self hosting but that brings a whole box of it's own issues.
