Yeah, sure. I'd be happy to help out.
I think Lemm.ee would be a fine alternative but infosec.pub may be worth considering too. The owner/admin runs multiple instances across the range of fediverse services (including the popular infosec.exchange mastodon server) so I think the risk of it abruptly shutting down is extremely low.

Great!
Yes, Jerry is doing a great job with his services. The only issue I see is that with the "infosec" in the name, the domain might be blocked by company firewalls as they would tag it under "hacking". I know they run a mbin instance, Fedia.io, but I would rather go with Lemmy as Kbin/Lemmy compatibility can be finicky.
What do you think?
I hadn't considered that but if you think that's a realistic possibility then I wouldn't have an issue resettling on lemm.ee. Either option would be fine. I mostly suggested .pub because I know the infosec family of instances are well run and dependable.
I'm pretty sure I had that issue at some point when I wanted to check a community on infosec.pub and then got that kind of block.
Alright, I just noticed the community already exists, here it is !movies@lemm.ee.
I requested it in !meta@lemm.ee
