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!

Your list is pretty comprehensive!

You could add:

https://lemmy.world/ to ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ

Maybe https://slrpnk.net/ to ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น as thatโ€™s where theyโ€™re hosted.

Also you can add the Lechestein flag ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฎto Feddit.org as theyโ€™re German speaking.

https://lemuria.es/ still has a Lemmy instance running, if any Spaniards are enthusatic, they could try emailing the @admin, @contact, etc addresses and see if the owner will transfer it over to you. I'm sure we can rummage up enough help to get it back up and running if you get control.

Would be kinda cool to have some more African and south+east Asian instances. I would happily donate to help get some instances hosted in poorer countries.

I found just one Japanese instance. It is unfortunate that Lemmy is not well-known in Japan.

I'm in the process of setting one up for Iceland, feddit.is. Mostly there, just some final touches.

If there are so many, why do I only see Feddit.de when I browse All?

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

Feddit.org. Feddit.de has been dead for months

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?"

This is where the machine is hosted? I am thinking about the domain they used might be a different one. Example I would take where it is cheapest to host it.

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/

Russia and China not filled in

Lol

There used to be Lemmy Indonesia as well. Just like almost all Indonesian fediverse instance, all of them are dead (except Misskey and that new Mastodon instance barren of any user).

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.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Same, I've had to surf along with The Neighbours to find something close by and stable...

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Lemmy.world is also hosted in the Netherlands IIRC, I'm just proxying through the UK.

[โ€“] [email protected] 43 points 4 days ago (5 children)

Looks like weโ€™re going to use your instance as a neutral meeting place for all the EU instance admins.

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.

Strange that Spain and Norway don't have its own instance. Big countries

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

https://lemuria.es/ still seems to be running a Lemmy instance, so there is hope. ๐Ÿคž
