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

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.
