I'll probably step away from socials completely, other than YouTube, and my music sharing account on bluesky.

It has been a blast, and I wish you the best!

Thanks for sticking around this community! It genuinely means a lot.

I tried sharing the link again and it seems to be working. I went to a private tab and asked someone else to open it to see if it was a privacy setting I had on, but it seems to open everywhere I've tried.

I don't know if this helps, but here's the handle: @piklradio.bsky.social‬

Thanks, for being subscribed!

I wish you the best.

 

Hello everyone, I'm here to let you know that the instance that I and this community reside are being shutdown at the end of this month.

I'm sorry for letting you know so late, but life hasn't permitted much time, and I've been trying to decide if I'd create another account and community somewhere else. Ultimately, I decided on not pursuing it.

This community was created to easily share things I found interesting on the internet, and in the very beginning, to help Lemmy, (and this instance) flourish with rich content.

I was posting upward of 20+ posts a day, at a time in my life where I had a ton of time on my hands, due to medical turmoil. I believed in Lemmy, and I knew the only thing it needed to be successful, was content. And I knew that if I wanted that to happen, I would have to create the communities and build them myself.

I built several communities here, that I like to think offered joy to some people, so I'd like to say mission accomplished.

My life this year, has been the most complicated it's ever been, and with that being said, I've decided to let the personal community go, along with my account.

I've truly appreciated the people that subscribed here, and tolerated some of the dumb and interesting things I've posted over the years. I hope you found things of interest, and hopefully I inspired at least one person to post their content a little more to help grow the greater community here in Lemmy.

It has been really fun sharing conversations with you all, and I hope you all continue to find joy here and in your own personal lives. Thanks for believing in Lemmy, and thanks for giving any time of your day to read what I've shared.

I hope to pop-up in your feed again some day! ✌️

 

My home instance is getting shut down at the end of this month. I've delayed saying anything, due to life complications, and not being sure if I want to keep this up at all.

I've landed at going to bluesky and sharing music there (where time permits). I know there is mastodon, but I really don't feel like setting up shop again if an instance shuts down.

My life has been the most complicated it's ever been starting the beginning of this year. I really needed something I enjoy (sharing music) to be simple and I went with the easiest option that's not twitter (x).

If you want to follow me there, you can head to this link: https://bsky.app/profile/piklradio.bsky.social

https://bsky.app/profile/piklradio.bsky.social

It doesn't have much posted there yet, as I've been thinking on whether I'd like to move to it fully and tested the waters.

I also have a YouTube channel that I created to share playlists of music. I don't have anything setup yet, but you can follow it here: https://youtube.com/@andromedusgalacticus. There won't be any original content here, so only follow if you're interested in playlists, and themed playlists in the future.

I'm truly sorry to anyone that doesn't agree with these moves.

I'm so greatful for everyone that stopped by to listen to music from here, and put up with all the changes in frequency. It's been a really fun experiment to do this kind of community, and hope that everyone continues to find interesting jams wherever they go!

I think I will let that be handled by someone else this time around. I'm at a much different stage of my life since I first began doing this, and I am stepping away from social media. I've already cut down to only using socials (excluding YouTube), to once a week, if even that.

It's been such a fun run, in the communities, but hopefully someone will make a community with the same level of passion I had when I first made it. Now my attention is going elsewhere to new passions.

Thank you for offering to copy and paste, feel more than welcome to take that over if you choose to do so, if not, then I appreciate you being around!

From what I've seen, it doesn't seem to be a great process and requires an account from the instance you want to transfer to, to have been subscribed since the beginning. It also doesn't seem to transfer comments or anything.

I'm thinking about how I want to approach this. I might honestly move to a mastodon, or bluesky setup, with a couple of YouTube playlists. I have no idea. I honestly didn't see the notice for my instance shutting down until I saw your comment, so kind of running through the options. I'll likely make a local backup of the pages, so I don't lose what was posted and maybe manually start posting everything wherever I decide to go. I'm going to make a community post soon in my communities, but I need to nail down where I'm going first.

Truly appreciate the heads up. I have no idea how I didn't see this in my feed the past few days.

 

Hello, everyone! I'm sorry to announce that this communities home instance Lemm.ee is shutting down for good. Unfortunately, Lemmy's capabilities are are too limited to save this place, or move it over to another instance.

There are 3rd party tools I have seen mentioned, but they are a pain and not a good substitute for a full migration.

With that being said, this will be the end of this community. Parts and pieces of it should be saved on other instances. This will depend on when other users subscribed from the instance you're on. For the major ones, I subscribed a while back, just in-case this were to happen.

All images from this instance will be broken, but it should function still as a museum since the time the first person subscribed from your Lemmy instance.

It's been awesome sharing this time with everyone here, and I hope that you enjoyed the content shared from our community, and maybe even learned about a new game, or two while you were here!

Thank you for stopping by in this little corner for rhythm games, if you have any other communities you want to shout out, please say them here!

 

First of all, thank you to everyone that has participated here, or enjoyed the news updates from years past. I know it's been kind of a ghost town lately, but I really appreciate everyone subscribing. Especially when Lemmy wasn't as established as it is now.

Now, it's time to move onto a new community if you still love and appreciate all things Adult Swim.

Please check out @adultswim.fan. There is an active moderator staying on top of all the latest adult swim content. So if you're interested, head over to adultswim.fan! and maybe drop a hello from here.

Thank you for being here!

Gotcha, it's all good. I'm sure adultswim.fan will be happy to have some more users. Hopefully our community will appreciate the more active community. Thanks for moderating with me!

I've been around still, mostly just lurking for a couple of minutes at a time. With Lemm.ee shutting down, I have no problem with that. You can fully take over this community.

[–] andromedusgalacticus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That genuinely makes me so happy to hear. I really appreciate you sticking around for so long too! I hope this acts as a treasure trove for whoever stumbles upon it.

Back in 2017, with no prior coding or game development experience, I decided to learn Unity and started work on Game Over.

Up until the pre-release reviews were giving it 10/10, 8.5/10 & 8/10 (Pizza Fria, Checkpoint Gaming, Thumb Culture respectively), I was dead set nervous that the game might be no good.

It comes out today on Steam (in half an hour, feel like I'm gonna barf). I've met some of my best playtesters here on Lemmy, so I'm happy to announce it here specifically!

Just wanted to say thanks for sharing Spotify news! I love the work you put into staying on top of it for everyone. It's a really cool thing you do for us

[–] andromedusgalacticus@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Totally agree. I don't have the energy to fight a battle on his behalf, so I put it out there to avoid it. I found it to be helpful for people starting out and wanted to share it.

[–] andromedusgalacticus@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

Thank, you! I love getting recommendations too. I checked them both out and those were great suggestions! I'll be adding them to my wishlist.

Make sure to check out the album! It’s equally as good
