    I really need to find a similar enough server to put an alt on

    sh.itjust.works is a good option. Based in CA and run on green energy.

    Alternatively make a Piefed account and try it out.

    Main instance for that is piefed.social, and there’s Piefed.world run by the same team as Lemmy.world, but different instance admins I believe.

    Any time Lemmy.world goes down, I get reminded I should check my sh.itjust.works notifications more often when looking at months old replies to comments I made the last time it was down when I wanted to use it.

    Nice thing is you can make an alt on a different instance for times like this, or to just try out a different instance.

    For example sh.itjust.works is a great Lemmy instance based out of Canada that uses 100% renewable energy. There’s lots of other great instances out there too.

    Check out https://join-lemmy.org/instances for a list of options.

    Try piefed.social or piefed.world if you want to try out Piefed instead of Lemmy. Similar experience with some quality of life improvements.
