A nice website for looking for servers, platforms, and user numbers over time is: https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy

Also handy for getting a picture of how many lemmy servers there are and how big they are.

I joined midwest.social and that site says it's hosted in Germany. I find that funny that the USA Midwest is hosted overseas.

It was noted here that a German server was chosen due to their better data privacy laws :)
