K. 🔞@bedtimedrillsgt Oh shoot :(. Thank you for creating this space in the first place, you can be proud of what you did here! I'm sure I'm not the only one who has met lovely and kinky people here, thanks to you!
École des Bro-Arts@bedtimedrillsgt Aw shucks, sorry to see y'all go. Thank you for running this space for all these years. ❤️
nightscy@bedtimedrillsgt I had a feeling that this might happen. Just hours ago I've talked to someone about it. 😔
Thanks a lot for creating this space in the first place, I've really enjoyed being here!
Part of me is considering setting up and (co-)managing an instance like this in the future … Would you mind telling us a bit more about the current infrastructure and the growth issues you're touching on in your post? (I'm an experienced dev and sysadmin myself, feel free to get technical.)
@nightscy maybe I can write up a little github gist about it.
@bedtimedrillsgt I'd love that, even if it consists of just a few bullet points. But only if it's not an inconvenience. You've done enough for us already ❤️
daftwullie@bedtimedrillsgt thanks a lot for your work and this space. I‘m going to miss it <3
V@bedtimedrillsgt Thank you so much for your hard work, and for running an awesome community. My sub's on here, so I'll have to let her know. I hope 2025 is good to you!

@bedtimedrillsgt thanks for everything you've done!
Johnny Gear@bedtimedrillsgt We'll be sad to see your instance go!
pleasemistress@bedtimedrillsgt thanks so much for creating this space and keeping it running for this long. I'm sad to see it go but I am very grateful for its existence. 
🛩9395224!!69🐷@bedtimedrillsgt what instance are you migrating to? So that we can continue to follow you. Is it possible to save kinky.business from closing? Thank you for creating a safe - inclusive space that let us share and be part of a groovie online community. 🌻🫶🫀
Trollup 🐾🏳️🌈@bedtimedrillsgt I’m sorry to read his news. It’s been a great community! Are there any suggestions for instances that might be suitable for folks?
Lilith Ashley Nyx Arson 
Rita HayuniThank you, @bedtimedrillsgt, for giving me a home and hope and the opportunity to get in contact with other people like me via kinky.business. It was always a pleasure being here. I felt safe and warm and cozy. Thank you again. Love, Rita. 😘
ComeTogetherThat is the dark side of the fediverse. No money to thrive. Sad but true,
Dumpling@bedtimedrillsgt I've been mostly lurking lately, but thank you so much for all the time, effort and money you've put into kinky business over the years! This has felt like home ever since I discovered fedi
Buck Moon@bedtimedrillsgt sorry to see you go, kinky.business was my first kinky instance.
But also totally get when running things becomes basically a second job you are paying for
Emelia 👸🏻@bedtimedrillsgt hi! Is there anything I could do to help you stay online?
(I currently do some operations work with hachyderm & contribute to Mastodon)
13k accounts / 840 MAU doesn't seem particularly large that you should be facing scaling problems?
Would be happy to help out.
Mastodon•ART 🎨 Curator@thisismissem @bedtimedrillsgt I'm also very happy to help, even if it's just boosting and helping post about donation drives - we've got between 4 - 5k active users every month and we're entirely donations-covered and have been since before I became Curator in 2021.
RomanceReviews@bedtimedrillsgt oh no! Thank you so much for providing this space for so long, it does sound time for someone else’s turn.
stepless_switch@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for giving me a home for my kinky alter ego in your spare time.
It was a great place over here!
It was a great place over here!
The Moose has MOVED@bedtimedrillsgt shoot, I'm sorry to hear that. I totally get it though - and thank you for running the server for that long!
Lynn Lasabre@bedtimedrillsgt Thanks for running the server for so long. I know it's a thankless job most of the time. I really appreciated having a home here.
Adam Edam@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for maintaining this space! ❤️
moanos@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for everything!
If people are searching for a new home, you can check if https://gay-pirate-assassins.de would be fitting for you.
check pinned 🌻@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for the wonderful time you gave us on here! 💙
SunLocked@bedtimedrillsgt Thank you so much for providing this nice instance. I had a good time here and you did a great job managing it, I never encountered any problems.
I have been a Patreon of kb for quite some time, but if I had known that we were not even covering your expenses, I really would have liked to help some more.
Best wishes to you!
Cumpy-chan@bedtimedrillsgt so long and thanks for all the spunk 🫡
@igushcomputers thank you so much for everything. You are one of the few OG folks who stuck around and I love it
subhabits 🔞@bedtimedrillsgt Thanks for all the time and effort you've put into the place! Sad to see it go but I understand the difficulty in keeping up a server in your off time
Leinad@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for everything! I wonder if it would make sense for you to archive an encrypted offline version of what was done here, for posterity. I'm always weary of what time and digital tech erase in terms of minorities' self-expression.
Gero@bedtimedrillsgt Thank you for your work and your time. I had a lot of fun, and now I had to leave and find a new kinky homeplace.
@bedtimedrillsgt sorry to read this but totally get it. Thanks for everything!
Elea@bedtimedrillsgt thank you for all these years running this instance. it was a pleasant home. goodbye and maybe we see us in the fediverse. 💕
Triss, cuddle-slut 
@bedtimedrillsgt
Just got home from holidays and read the sad news.
I'm sorry to hear that we reached the point where kinky.business draws too much energy and money as a hobby project 😿
I've always enjoyed it here and had so much fun on this great kinky instance. It'll be really hard to find a replacement.
Thanks for keeping us safe so we could stay filthy all that time. You've done a great job and should be proud of it 💜
@@bedtimedrillsgt And I thought 2025 could not possibly get any worse …
But first: Thank you so much for work! Thank you so much for providing this instance, where I met many kinky people.
It's such a shame to see it go, while I completely understand your motivation.
Again, thank you!
Sapphic Slutty Bliss@bedtimedrillsgt first of all thank you. For everything.
Thoughts are hard to put together to really describe what Kb has meant to so many.
It wasn't the largest or most well known spot on the fediverse, but it was home.
I'm amazed at the wonderful people and personalities you have managed and built this community with. Wherever you go, you will be successful, I can only hope that you remember all of us here as flames to your banner.
Home. You built this. So for now and as long as you keep that spark alive. Thank you
