I think I’m going to migrate this community to Lemmy.world or Lemmy.zip. I love PieFed, but I’d rather wait until things are a little more stable before I consider PieFed.social.

I think world and zip are both fantastic options. Lemm.ee leaves me a little worried that any instance can shut down at any point. I’d prefer to pick whatever instance is least likely to shut down. I do think Lemmy.ml is pretty safe from shutdown, since it’s run by Lemmy maintainers, but I’m worried I’m reducing my audience since many people block ml.

Any thoughts?

If you do migrate the community I'd go with lemmy.zip. It federates with pretty much anything that isn't illegal (lemmy.zip de federation vs lemmy.ml and lemmy.world), I don't think anyone blocks it (there are some people who block lemmy.world), it appears financially stable according to their reports, it has been around for sometime (not the oldest, but not new), it hosts a blorp instance and hasn't had (to my knowledge) any controversial administrative decisions.

That being said, I personally don't care if the community is on .ml, I'd probably just wait till piefed is more established and then reconsider (especially since it has a move community function).

On an unrelated note I think there is a typo in the GitHub readme, the last word is “ap” not “app”
