Though from Kbin.social, StarTrek.website, Discuss.Online, and now PieFed.social, I have been able to see Beehaw the entire time iirc.:-)

As you know, I'm not the biggest LW fan, but even I wouldn't use an account defederated from LW, especially with SJW on top. You're missing probably 80% of the active communities, and 15% of the remaining are on lemmy.ml

Part of the reason might be the ginormous size of just thousands of miles separating coast to coast, and more besides to Alaska or Hawaii etc.

Even with that, why is there no Californian or New York instance? Seems weird to me seen how populous and tech oriented those places are

Theres a ton of lemmy servers in Cali, but just no official one. Its all just one offs (I support one).
