Was initially on lemmy.zip because it seemed really chill and that was such a cool instance name. I had no problems with it whatsoever but I realised it didn't block out certain instances that I disliked (aka lemmygrad). Now I'm on lemmy.fmhy.ml and I'm loving it so far since it had everything I needed:

  1. Blocks out lemmygrad
  2. Allows talk on piracy and NSFW content
  3. Loads better compared to the more overpopulated instances
  4. Wasn't very restrictive and was very welcoming (didn't even ask me for a reason for joining)
