This is our 3 year anniversary! And without you guys this wouldn't have happened. I'm glad we have all these passionate people all over the fediverse willing to post the most amazing retro content.

Thankfully it was another pretty quiet year for us as admins of this site. But this is business as usual for us by now, as our site usually doesn't attract a lot of rowdy people.

This was the year that we launched our other retro inspired fedi-place called Retrofed, a PieFed based instance. This software has also proved to be great, and this is my preferred home for browsing myself (but, don't worry, retrolemmy will remain to exist as long as we physically can). We have added topics and feeds there, that can make subscribing and/or following content much easier. Hopefully these feeds will also work on lemmy if and when lemmy 1.0 gets here.

I'm glad you people are here. It's always amazing seeing a retrolemmy account in the wild, and it's great seeing all the active communities and posts here too! Thanks for another fun year!

Cheers!

Hip hip hooray!

    I've been here for a little over a year now. When DosDude asked me to help admin I was still mostly using my old instance but eventually I realized this was my real home instance. Big thanks to DosDude for hosting this great instance, doing an excellent job in both technical and non technical aspects!

    DosDude gives us this fairly beefy server for free, so if you'd like to donate you can do that here https://ko-fi.com/DosDude
