only time would prove that ur instance would be reliable.
also ur instance won't be an exception: when corps deem that u hav a high enough usercount instance that is making piracy content accessible among users, they wouldn't hesitate to threat u legally, so federation with pirate instances shouldn't be a selling point, unless u have an unlimited stock of money to hire a lawyering firm.. still, i would gladly vouch for ur instance. We Lemmy as a whole can't do much against corp action: they have the financial means to afford legal action, or run unlimited ddos attacks for days, bringing Lemmy basically to its knees, we need to learn how to tread through this, instead of acting like tough guys.
Also hope more people come out and advertize their instance and vowing that they u would maintain it as humanly possible, cause i am running out of recommendations honestly
