Don't you guys have an admin chat group. Or at least you guys would have some way of keeping in touch since this has happened before.

We do, in fact. They never gave a heads-up, and none has responded until now. I found about this from this post

That's unfortunate.

Well at least they honored their commitments /s

"Just a heads up for when we do this again: we know that it sucks, and we are doing it anyway."

because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

It's funny because someone on their team started banning people from that thread for disagreeing with their stance then when called out for it they quietly changed the instance bans for community bans, in an awesome display of pure pettiness one would normally see on Reddit.

When I described the previous removal as LW having a feud with dbzer0, that was why.
