Hey, Mlem Community.
You might have noticed our community has been closed for the past few days and that several posts have been removed. If you're especially keen, you might have noticed that we momentarily migrated to vlemmy.net.
We recently parted ways with the team member responsible for most of our community outreach. We had hoped that he would agree to smoothly step away from the project. He did not. On his way out, he used his power as the primary (active) mod on this community to shut it down and remove several posts. He also refused to relinquish control of the Mlem Official accounts on Lemmy and Mastodon.
First and foremost we apologize deeply for his behavior. He is not, nor will he ever again be, affiliated with this project, and we have enacted greater redundancies and shared authority to prevent anything like this from happening again.
WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
We continue developing, of course! The core dev team is intact and as excited as ever to bring you the best Lemmy app that we can. We've got a new TestFlight build coming down the pipeline soon and an App Store application just around the corner from that. The community is open, and we look forward to hearing all your voices again.
Cheers,
The Mlem Team
Incredibly toxic behavior. We had a side chat and decided that all of us were working on this project for fun as a hobby and him being on the team no longer made it fun for any of us.
Almost every team has 1+ toxic member. Ugh I hate it.
Well we tried to cut it out before it ruined the project for all of us so we are still having fun :)
