Fuck, that sucks. And I can’t even blame the lemm.ee admins - burnout is a pain.
TL;DR: IMO lemmy.zip > sopuli.xyz, sh.itjust.works > lemmy.world > beehaw.org
At first I’d probably try lemmy.zip, as it’s “A Lemmy community for everyone, with a focus towards tech, PCs, and gaming.” (in its own words). It seems fitting.
sopuli.xyz and sh.itjust.works seem to be sensible too, and each has a few game-related comms already. I don’t see many issues with either, even as I watch [email protected] for free popcorn.
There’s also lemmy.world, but that instance is already the largest one, and it would be unwise to put even more eggs in that basket. There are also political issues but… meh, I don’t think they’re relevant here, so it’s still an option.
beehaw.org as a last case scenario. The game is wholesome so it would fit the instance; but you’d need to ask the admins to allow you to create the comm there, and beehaw defederates from a lot of other instances (higher behaviour standards).
Note that I did not check if any of those are for 16yo+ users.
The instance is great.
Also, most transparent admins around: https://lemmy.zip/post/39959863
Worth noting that .zip blocks UK users (although I can’t really blame them. The situation sucks). Content is still visible through other instances (or over a vpn), but the “canonical” source will be unreachable in the uk.
Can confirm the .zip admin has been awesome. Not without minor issues, but I’m much happier about the community being run by some good natured guy than a faceless company or something.
+1 for zip. The admin is super cool. Never seen a single negative talk about it. Faced maintainance mode 2 times in 2 years but it’s normal. Admin is a human afterall.
SJW is 16+ according to the legal section, I’m on the SJW Matrix chat and I can confirm with the admins if there’s interest.
We’re defederated from Beehaw so if there’s any active users from there you’d lose them moving to SJW, and vice versa.
Edit: .zip seems to be 18+ per their TOS, Sopuli is 16+, world is 18+, and Beehaw can refederate >:(
Edit2: Sopuli and Beehaw are still federated, Sopuli might be the right choice, but I know quite a few .ee comms are looking at piefed and they’ve got some nice migration tools but I don’t know much about the piefed instances beyond seeing their users and communities once in a while.
