What’s next for feddit.uk

So it’s been five months since @tom@feddit.uk last posted and two months since he contacted @emperor@feddit.uk

It’s seems like nothing much has happened and the plans for a replacement were briefly resurrected then shutdown.

I guess we’ve all moved on.

  • What would it take for Tom to share the super admin (upgrades really) powers? It doesn't make sense for him to have these exclusively when it means the instance doesn't get updated in a timely manner.

    Does he want money? What's the issue with only having a single person that can do this? Is it quirk of the way it was set up in the first place? Is there no way to transfer this ownership? Sounds like there's a few members willing to pick up the effort.

    • The problem is that Tom has not been communicating. He’s the only one can do any upgrades and the only one who even knows where the server is.

      We don’t even know if any backups are being done.

      • How did he get in touch last time? If and when he does he needs to share or hand over these responsibilities. I can't imagine he wants the community to rot, and if he's too busy (fair enough) he should be willing to let others take over.

        • With Tom, it feels like it's a project he started but quickly got bored with. He was quite active at the start but now there's nothing.

          • Agreed, there were signs at the start as well. I also think it went from being a fun hobby to real responsibilities as Lemmy grew.
