Peertube.social will shut down in three months, due to inactivity and loss of interest by the administration team. You have until 15/10/2021 to download your videos and migrate your channels. (lemmy.161.social)

Wish more information be released on why it is happening. If @[email protected] needs some help for moderation, I am sure there are volunteers including me. If it is financial issue, there is no harm for requesting support.

Its really lack of interest, I havent visited peertube.social in like a year, and the only other admin who used to be active also hasnt done anything in like six months. Having an extra admin wouldnt fix that. And I dont want to transfer the instance to someone else, because I dont know if they can be trusted with the user data. Shutting it down is simply the easiest option.

Thanks for your reply. Though Fediverse is independent from instances ,but it doesn't give good feeling when one sees instances like this go down.

I understand but I hope there be some way to save the instance. What about FSFE which is sponsor of the instance?
