I've had a great experience here on fedia.io. It's a smaller instance, and it is running Mbin instead of Lemmy, but everything federates over so you get the same content. Might feel a bit weird switching from Lemmy, but if you feel like it I'd recommend giving it a try. :)
We're also defederated from Hexbear, lemmy.ml, and Lemmygrad if that's a factor.
I've been pretty happy with how the instance I use has been run thus far, but it is focused around furries, so it won't be something most people outside that subculture like I expect. Still, the fandom is big enough that someone in it looking for an instance might look at this thread, so I mention it anyway.
lemmy.dbzer0.com
.zip has the closest instance policies to .ee. A lot of .ee refugees moved there (me included). Some also moved to piefed if you're considering that.
I've found that self-hosrinf my own instance has been a very good way of keeping the number of bits, spammers and people that like to take things to the extremes at a nice and consistent 0.
Sure, self hosting your own instance isn't for everyone but it's definitely doable and I'm satisfied with my experiences so far.
Depends; Closest thing to lemm.ee? Maybe lemmy.zip?
Here's my own choices:
Dbzer0 and zip are probably the closest thing to lemm.ee in terms of defederation.
Any website or service that utilizes the .zip TLD 🤮🤮
I'm sure there are great websites and services that utilize it, but I have a strong opinion that the TLD should have never been put out there for people to use. I block all .zip TLD domains with no exceptions; and so unfortunately, I cannot use lemmy.zip.
To be fair, I have no real opinions about lemm.ee. It was one of the instances that had the most users when I joined Lemmy, and as far as I'm aware it hasn't received any real negative press.
I'm more bothered about seeing or being associated with spam and/or an instance full of toxic people. I'm not a spicy person - or so I'd like to think.
What's different about .zip? 🤔
Only negative thing i can name is that it blocks the UK, because of a law they don't want to risk
I don't know the admin team at db0 can be interesting at times.
can you elaborate more?
I thought I'd be able to come with something funny but apparently I can't on the spot so no it's just a dumb reference to you being on the admin team there.
I choosed lemmy.ml cause it was first i saw with no email registration
I don't see a lot of the things you're trying to avoid on my instance. But I almost always browse "subscribed" and mostly have no idea what's going on in communities I'm not subscribed to.
looking for a instance with the fewest trolls, bots, and anyone that likes to take things to the extremes.
All the instances are good in their own way, but at least one will irritate you very much, and it’s always different. There are ways each one can make you go “why???”
There are commenters who will call one or more instances bad things. That may or may not be accurate for you.
Each large instance has one or more crazy mods, all instances mostly have decent mods. Each instance will have multiple examples about why it’s good or horrible.
Maybe dubvee? That's kind of the exact vibe we're fostering.

Cons are that a lot of accounts are banned (rule 8) and we don't federate with some instances: .ml, grad, hexbear, lemdroid (too much spam originates there). We're kind-of the opposite of lemm.ee in a lot of ways, so it might be a bit jarring if that's where you're coming from.
