  It would be nice if it wasn’t onto the zip domain.

  I’d always be terrified to get a surprise zip bomb auto downloading

    Which instance would you use instead of lemmy.zip?

    From another post

    Lemmy.world is too big
    sh.itjust.works names contains "shit", which can deter users
    lemmy.ca is Canadian-centric
    feddit.org, is German-centric, but technically English speaking too
    dbzer0 federates hexbear
    programming.dev is topic-centric
    blahaj is queer-focused
    discuss.tchncs.de has a difficult name
    lemmy.sdf.org does not defederate anyone
    beehaw defederates LW and SJW
    infosec.pub is topic-centric
    aussie.zone is country-centric
    midwest.social is region-centric

    There's a reason lemm.ee was the previous default instance.

      lemmings.world or pifed.social both are general purpose, and relatively small

      Maybe Cafe? Honestly I don’t think they should have default option

      dbzer0 federates hexbear

      lemm.ee and lemmy.zip also federate hexbear.

  Still waitin for lemmy.7z or lemmy.tar

    @pineapplelover@lemm.ee you can only access by entering a semantically correct invocation of tar as run on a POSIX box from 1978.

      tar

  Ok, but why did they do this and why is it good?

  • fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Lemm.ee is shutting down, so they had to change. Lemmy.zip is the best choice

    • Sc00ter@lemm.ee ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Been trying to figure out where to migrate. This is the biggest endorsement that I should shift to .zip

    Lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of the month.

  Bit shit for UK users though since lemmy.zip is blocked for them. Not exactly going to encourage new users from here.

  • gressen@lemm.ee ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    They should direct their concerns to the source of the issue - the ones that put UK in this predicament.

    source

    • Quicky@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Realistically that is never going to happen. The biggest issue the fediverse has is onboarding. People just looking to try out a reddit alternative aren’t going to bother emailing their fucking MP just because the default settings of an app won’t let them sign up. They’ll just give up and go elsewhere.

      If we want to encourage growth, adding additional barriers isn’t the way to do it.

    Lemmy.zip is blocked on a national level for the UK?

    source

    • MehBlah@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      that is okay feddit.uk is blocked by my default blocklist on the router. I’ve started to add it to the white list a few times but no I think I’ll let fate sort it out.

      It’s not lemmy.zip that’s blocked in the UK, they (lemmy.zip) block every visitor from the UK as they don’t want to get in trouble for violating the UK’s Online Safety Act.

  Congrats to @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip, seems like the transparency and the great monthly reports (lemmy.zip/post/39959863) paid back!

    Wow, that’s amazing 🥲

      You deserve it, one of the best instances [and admins] by far.
