The Voyager app now defaults to lemmy.zip. I really like sh.itjust.works fwiw.
I'm thinking between Zip and db0... I can't decide π
I was too comfortable with lemme.ee (AKA less drama overall than your favorite Lemmy instance) but now I need to deal with this...
Well, I knew from the beginning, that the fediverse works this way, if any we should be grateful we were given a good window to migrate (former fmhy user here lol), and honestly it makes sense, each instance can't last forever... Not even big sites like Reddit will.
I also can vouch for sh.itjust.works. They have a fair defederation policy and has only gone down a couple times in the two years Iβve been using it. When it has the admin has been quick to address it and provides updates via a matrix chat.
The one downside is that some more niche domains have ~~degenerated~~ defederated (thanks autocorrect) from us due to the open enrolment we have (beehaw comes directly to mind). I recall someone linking a website that tracked what servers are federated with each other but I canβt find it now unfortunately.

Oh no! Not beehaw!
I went here after i read .ee is shutting down , most of the stuff i followed back there i can follow from here
We welcome you to the fold! I tried a few instances when I joined a couple years back but basically never use my alts because SJW βjust worksβ :) I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!
Thanks a ton , i liked .ee culture , hope to have some of the same weirdness here too
I'm really out of the loop. Why is lemm.ee shutting down? I thought it was one of the more sizeable instances.
Admin team was too small and they couldnt find a replacements for people that were leaving , its a ungrateful job i guess ?
Is beehaw still around? I had no idea. I thought they defederated from everyone then I assumed they died out.
They only block lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works, and a few small servers.
Its honestly a really pleasant place to be -- I see no negativity there.
i think you might be referring to Fediseer?
