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!

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?"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

Probably the latter.

I swear Mujico (Mexico) was around for a bit. I wonder if it's still up.

Edit: It's still alive and kicking! https://mujico.org/

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?

I don't know from experience, but I've seen mentions of it taking serious work, including dealing with CP content being uploaded (federated?) to random instances...

I'm fairly certain AI tools exist to aid in scanning for child pornography. I haven't looked into it at all though so I dont know its efficacy.

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.

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.

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.

Looks like we’re going to use your instance as a neutral meeting place for all the EU instance admins.
