I don't mean to sound entitled, and I hope that the author of Arctic is in good health. But, with the TestFlight soon expiring and the AppStore version somewhat outdated, I was hoping if there would be anyone who had any news about updates? Or, should we be looking for alternatives?

It defaults to Lemmy.zip for now. You can add custom instances by putting them in the search durning login. I don't plan on running a public instance, since running that would be time I could dedicate to working on Blorp. There’s a community !blorp@lemmy.ml, but I think I’m going to migrate to !blorp@lemmy.zip.

Awesome to hear, I just made this @lemmy.ml account. I’ll create one on zip. I’m just looking for compatibility and up time, a few are sadly disappearing.

A lot of people block ml, but it’s run by the Lemmy devs so I would expect it to not disappear. I personally was caught off guard with lemm.ee shutting down, but it seems like lemmy.world and Lemmy.zip are safe. I hope.

Alright, you’ve convinced me to switch again lol. Mind if I ask why? I’m just trying to pick closest servers, but I don’t want to be blocked.

Edit: Signed up for zip and waiting on acceptance.

Honestly I wouldn’t overthink it. I don’t really see an issue with switching instances in the future. Unless you are really worried about your posts/comments, but Lemmy doesn’t have Karma which imo makes switching easier.

But I built Blorp to be really multi account friendly, so I would sign into your ml and zip account and try both.

That’s perfect then, in the early days of Lemmy I figured having 2-3 accounts might become inevitable. There were quite a few DDoS attacks. 🫤 Might as well have a backup.
