It should be noted that Feddit.org was included to represent Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
I did not include Baraza.africa as that was too encompassing as it covers the whole African continent.
Hopefully this post inspires more countries to join the blue club!
https://lemmy.cat/ and https://lemmy.eus/ for Catalunya and Basque Country
Still would like to see a Spanish instance emerge
Hey, where's Norway? And Iceland?
There used to be Lemmy Indonesia as well. Just like almost all Indonesian fediverse instance, all of them are dead (except Misskey and that new Mastodon instance barren of any user).
Looks like I will have to make an updated post with more detail after hearing all the feedback!
seriously speaking, how much work is to host an instance actually? Besides buying the domain and getting it up and running on some cloud/homelab? The are any security concerns or maintenance that would take a lot of my time? Do I need to put some effort in instance level moderation, or that comes from communities? How many resources/hardware an instance uses per user?
What's the US one?
Sometimes it feels like .world is
midwest.social is sorta the defacto US-specific instance despite the name pointing to a specific region.
Hey. Cant believe my country is in there. Never knew that. Wonder what is the instance name.
Ireland has an instance?
There isn’t one yet as I made a mistake. We need someone to create feddit.ie.
fedd.ie
Russia and China not filled in
Lol
This is where the machine is hosted? I am thinking about the domain they used might be a different one. Example I would take where it is cheapest to host it.
feddit.uk represent! Best inna worl'! Oo are ya, oo are ya? Come an' 'ave a go if you think yer'ardinuff!
And so forth, I'm sure you get the general gist.
Jlai.lu is more a francophone than strictly French instance, even if as far as I know most admins are French.
Damn Sunshine, you've been popping off on content. Formally, thank you 🙏
