we plan to sunset the pleroma.site instance, as, from what i can see, the original purpose of the instance has been accomplished.

when pleroma.site was started, there were only a handful of instances in existence running Pleroma.

now, there are several hundred which operate in a similar way to pleroma.site, as well as hundreds more with different moderation philosophies.

and so this opens the question: what is the point in continuing to run this instance? i feel like the community here would benefit from having a domain that allows us to be more independent.

the pleroma.site instance will continue to offer service until April 2021, but registrations have been permanently closed.

it is my hope that, as a community, we can find a domain that is more reflective of what we have been building together. i love the small, tight-knit community we have built here, and that's what i want to reflect in our communal identity, instead of something so pastiche and bland.
