Isn't it like https://kbin.world was back then? (when /kbin was still a thing?)
When you entered that page, it determined your location from IP address and redirected you to a magazine for your country, as shown on kbin.social.
Well, this could be repeated now, but for lemmy instances. We already have umpteen of regional/local ones, and they are on every continent of the world.
I don't know, I'm not familiar with kbin at all. Good to know I'm not alone in that thinking, though.
It would have helped me. My instance isn't in the same hemisphere as me!
You can move to a closer one by exporting and importing your settings from the parameters
Thank you for thinking forward. That's much appreciated.
I'm surprised to find there isn't much of a delay to loading the data from Oz. I'm sure I remember it being horrific not so long ago.
