Yeah awhile back when rezz got banned I was thinking .ee was a good alternative to move to, sucks they got shutdown.
@mill_city@lemmy.zip recomended lemmy.zip as well and I haven’t heard of any issues about it or its piefed instance so I think those could be good candidates.
I do like the idea of having team flares, does piefed have a good walkthrough of how those features work?
