Just noticed they deleted their account 8 days ago :(
Another beloved member of the community who will be sadly missed.
Jesus, I thought they were actually dead!
Yeah, it’d be interesting for there to be an exit survey. I’m always interested why people leave, especially those like Ilandar.
It’s more typical for people to “ghost”. I don’t think in those case there is any particular decision, they just stop checking in.
You’ll likely find the most common reason people leave is they’ve shared too much of themselves and someone either recognises them or they worry someone will. Some people start new user accounts and keep going. Some people will switch to a different instance. We aren’t a particularly attractive instance if you want to engage with a lot of lemmy.world communities, for instance. There’s a lag for when you’ll see their content until they upgrade their Lemmy version.
lot of lemmy.world communities,
Still working on getting a few more communities to other instances
Yeah, that lags a killer, although i’ve noticed its better than it used to be. But its still days.
Dammit.
I dont know who that is. I’m sure they were a big deal though.
Glad to hear they aren’t dead I guess, which was my initial expectation based on the headline.
