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!
Lemmy.eco.br representative here
Olá!!
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
Hey. Cant believe my country is in there. Never knew that. Wonder what is the instance name.
What’s your country? Maybe we can help
Hey. Thanks for offering but i just found it.
No worries, glad you found it!
Lol. No worries. I prefer to keep it down low where i live. I found it anyway. Pretty easy to find it. Thanks!
Staying private is understandable.
I prefer to keep it down low where i live
Ah. Australian. ;)
Aaaah, a fellow Batman Beyond enjoyer!
you could categorize lemm.ee but it’s a general instance so not really
Quite surprised to see Ukraine doesn’t have its own instance
I found just one Japanese instance. It is unfortunate that Lemmy is not well-known in Japan.
Wow, Africa’s Fediverse game is weak.
There is only one Lemmy instance hosted in the entirety of Africa and it’s called Faithlemmy.online in South Africa.
Baraza.Africa is ironically hosted in the Netherlands.
Me from the only Lemmy instance in South Korea:
Ive searched everywhere for an Arab/middle eastern instance, and the only one I could find was a fucking Turkish one (that I think is dead too lmao). I’d do it my self but L + no money + too lazy
Hosting your own instance starts off with paying out of pocket then once you set up donations from the community those dollars would fund most of the operating costs. However as the instance gets larger the economies of scale improve and eventually you may have some money leftover to put aside. You could also sell merch of the logos like stickers to help with keeping the lights on.
A lemmy instance needs a domain name, a host and a smtp email for notifications.
I wonder what the Lemmy.world server operations are like.
Interesting thank you. Personally I’m too westernized (not even western, just spend too much time around them lol) to run a whole instance for it, but I’ll keep an eye if someone ever creates one.
I never knew one existed there 😯
Huh, that exists? I thought no one in SK would care enough to host a lemmy instance.
I care enough to host one
Is there a instance for Greenland or is it covered by the danish instance?
It is covered under Denmark as they’re still part of the realm. But they have their constitution written ready for the day of independence.
Yeap, I’m aware of the Denmark and Greenland situation but I was curious if Greenland had their own instance
It’ll soon be covered by the US instances if the Danish army can’t see off the Yanks.
The middle east is completely gray 🥲 (except Turkey but that instance is dead, I’m not even Turkish)
Bangladesh has one busdyverse.one by ml
you know any other ones?
It’s the only one I saw
Ireland has an instance?
There isn’t one yet as I made a mistake. We need someone to create feddit.ie.
I too also want to know what the Irish instance is.
Damn Sunshine, you’ve been popping off on content. Formally, thank you 🙏
I’m in the process of setting one up for Iceland, feddit.is. Mostly there, just some final touches.
Awesome, I can’t wait to see it! It wouldn’t take too much to get the whole island on board.
Make sure it’s far away from a Volcano though.
I’m in and I love the theme! The little island will be more self-sufficient thanks to you! Lets hop into a hot spring some time!
Thanks! Set the Icelandic blue color as the primary color, think it looks pretty nice.
Works well.
I’m based in Luxembourg, and so is Haidra. Therefore I think we have that covered, even if we’re not specifically country-based.
Oooh nice we got Luxembourg covered like sopuli.xyz!
Another cool fact about db0 ;)
Damn, I thought dbzer0 was greek. Cheers eitherway.
I am personally Greek, but I’m based in Luxembourg.
Let’s put [email protected] in lemmy.dbzer0.com 😁
But they’re landlubbers!
Luxembourg is landlocked, it’s not their fault.
But we have the Uewersauer lake!
Nice idea ! :D
