YOU DID THIS TO US!!!!

In all seriousness, I'm sorry your community is going away. What kind of stuff was it for? Radio as in AM and FM? Ham? Frequencies for radio waves? Aliens?

Let me know where you end up and I'll subscribe! I finally convinced my wife to join Lemmy on .ee. It is unfortunate that she'll have to pick a new instance, but I get it why the effort outweighs the benefit of running an instance.

Edit This was also my first instance after reddit. I donated a few months ago to help with what I could. I, too, will miss it. As far as instances went, this one matched my personality the closest. Censorship was light but fair. Only now do I realize that it might have been a lack of admin intervention that made that possible!

Sorry guys; my bad. It's all my fault.

Jokes aside, it is going to be an internet radio station run by Lemmy users. We will have live DJs, scheduled programming blocks, and all music will be picked by the community.

This actually a relaunch. I originally launched the station back in 2023 but it barely lasted two months because I couldn't get enough content nor enough DJs to fill the schedule.

This time around I'm not launching the station until I have enough content to actually function like a proper radio station. I'm shooting for Q3 2025 because I feel like that is a wide enough window to get enough volunteers before we hit the airwaves. It all depends on you.

So if you want to contribute a block of programming, or even just give me a list of your favorite tunes, please read this first, and then PM we what you've got.

Also if you want to be a live DJ, please fill out this 4 question application.

Join us at our new home !radiolemmy@lemmy.blahaj.zone. Thank you and see you on the airwaves soon!

You're awesome. That sounds like a great project. What are you thinking of moving to for an instance so I can look for the community?

I want radiolemmy@lemmy.radio but that instance is more for terrestrial amateur radio so I don't think my application will be approved. I'll probably just pick a major instance to minimize the chances that this happens again.

Edit: went with !radiolemmy@lemmy.blahaj.zone

I'll keep an eye out for the new community!

I ended up moving to !radiolemmy@lemmy.blahaj.zone

See you there!
