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!
do these lemmy instances also generally get hosted in that country, to keep latencies low for population in those countries? needn't be i guess, but wonder if it is a prevalent pattern
Tbh, I'd prefer a list.
Here are the European ones (partly nicked from @Blaze@feddit.org's list on Reddit:
Others that have come up in the discussion here OT elsewhere:
Defunct:
https://lemuria.es/ still has a Lemmy instance running, if any Spaniards are enthusatic, they could try emailing the @admin, @contact, etc addresses and see if the owner will transfer it over to you. I'm sure we can rummage up enough help to get it back up and running if you get control.
@Blaze@feddit.org @Sunshine@lemmy.ca did I miss any?
Your list is pretty comprehensive!
You could add:
https://lemmy.world/ to 🇳🇱
Maybe https://slrpnk.net/ to 🇵🇹 as that’s where they’re hosted.
Also you can add the Lechestein flag 🇱🇮to Feddit.org as they’re German speaking.
Bangladesh has one busdyverse.one by ml
you know any other ones?
It's the only one I saw
Me from the only Lemmy instance in South Korea:
I never knew one existed there 😯
As a Belgian running an instance:
Am I a joke to you?
I'm kidding ofcourse, and I'm not really representing my country, except for an aptly named community.
Same, I've had to surf along with The Neighbours to find something close by and stable...
Lemmy.world is also hosted in the Netherlands IIRC, I'm just proxying through the UK.
Looks like we’re going to use your instance as a neutral meeting place for all the EU instance admins.
Are we talking "nations that have an official Lemmy instance" or "nations in which some private citizen or resident just happens to host a Lemmy instance?"
Strange that Spain and Norway don't have its own instance. Big countries
This seems to be missing Mali, the home of .ml. It's in West Africa and since the French soldiers left it's been an authoritarian client state of Russia. Very appropriate.
I'm based in Luxembourg, and so is Haidra. Therefore I think we have that covered, even if we're not specifically country-based.
I'm surprised Lemmy apparently has had hardly any penetration into the Spanish-speaking world yet. Is there some other Reddit-like service that's popular with those folks?
Also a long those lines, I wonder what services the Indians and Chinese are using?
Can somebody also make join-lemmy.org notice that our instance exists? Can't get it listed, even though we comply with the requirements for a while now.
I'm in the process of setting one up for Iceland, feddit.is. Mostly there, just some final touches.
My instance is Slovenian, you can add it to the list
https://lemmy.cat/ and https://lemmy.eus/ for Catalunya and Basque Country
Still would like to see a Spanish instance emerge
