So for others "zayebis" = "fucking awesome".

A bit vulgar to use.

Nice!I haven't used that word since the childhood,when using Russian words without property understanding them was a norm. You are right, definitely a proper situation is needed to use it.

I'd say that it's more of a "damn fine", and "fucking awesome" would be "ohuenno". Both of them are vulgar ofc
