the lemmy nsfw admin had previously asked if anyone was willing to take ownership of the instance because it was too much mental overhead to moderate a space that could sometimes get dicey and be legally liable for what was hosted on the server. there were no takers. the fact that this admin has been silent leads me to believe that this was not an active choice and instead something away from the keyboard led to this, be that legal, personal, or mental concerns that took priority over something they already felt no one would take on based on previously asking

They had two admins, only the first of which had the keys to the castle.
Ah! Thank you for the clarification. I'm glad you always know what's going on in the metafediverse
I could just imagine someone's wife finding out:
"Are you telling me that all this time, you've been running a porn site on the Internet? And you don't even make money at it?"
That would be my last day as mod.
Well if that is true, then that's completely fair. If they looked for someone to take it and nobody did, then there should be no surprise that it is gone now. You can be sad about it but not too sad, you should've just taken up the charge yourself then.
