We are here today to mourn the death of Radio Lemmy. It now reports a 'Station Not Found' for listeners, and an endless 'connecting' message for broadcasters.

Short lived as it was, it brought joy to listeners and presenters alike; whether it was three Scatman tracks in a row from Auto DJ, the countless times Rasputin had been played, to the many technical issues ranging from disconnecting to change track names and helicopter noises.

Psythik's disappearance was shortly after the 9th of November, last seen November 27th. A user under also under the username @Psythik@lemmy.world was spotted on .world, though it's not clear whether or not he is the same Psythik we know or it's another person who happens to use the same username (he does sound/write the same though.)

Unless Psythik does come back (which he has not), Radio Lemmy is now dead.

Thank you, Radio Lemmy, and thank you to the listeners, the curators (except for whoever put Scatman in thrice :3c) and the presenters.

Radio Lemmy, 6 November 2023 ~ 28 December 2023.

Been a bit, innit? Once again bringing you jazz, funk, the in-between of those genres, and anything else that sounds similar enough; live on Radio Lemmy!

(may involve helicopter noises)

With Psythik being inactive, Radio Lemmy seems to be unmaintained. Apparently (from what's been said in the Discord) there's a sizable queue of DJ applications which have not been accepted.

Hopefully this doesn't mean Psythik has completely ghosted Radio Lemmy; but as it stands right now, it's a waiting game, to see if the bills for the station have been paid or not.

Bills aside, some suggestions for Psythik (in case you read this):

• a donation system which has been long missing and wanted by many, we all want to keep Radio Lemmy alive of course,
• you might want to recruit people as radio staff, to handle the station's funky quirks and the ever growing request and application lists; since Radio Lemmy currently has a bus factor of 1 :)

EDIT: The schedule is extremely lonely, since the small presenter team we currently have is, well, small, and can't really cover all times. That includes myself :P
