Preface to say I don’t necessarily hold these views, just my observation:

.ml is considered “tankie”
Blahaj.zone is shitposty and pretty solidly trans-friendly/oriented
.world is “neutral,” and I think federated with most instances (I joined this one bc I was brand new here and it seemed beginner friendly, but I lean further left so ¯\(ツ)/¯ may instance hop in the future)
Lemm.ee runs similar to .world but maybe slightly more right leaning
Sh.it.justworks is predominantly techie
Sopuli.xyz seems primarily meme-centric
Feddit.org seems neutral-ish and more EU based, beyond that don’t know much

I’m sure there’s others I’m missing/stereotypes I’m wildly wrong about or not yet informed but that’s what I’ve gleaned so far.
