Does it even make a difference? Would much appreciate some suggestions.

    The Voyager app now defaults to lemmy.zip. I really like sh.itjust.works fwiw.

      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 I’ve 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 can’t find it now unfortunately.

          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 ‘just works’ :) I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

          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’m thinking between Zip and db0… I can’t decide 😁

      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.
