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!

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?"

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 15 minutes ago

Probably the latter.

Feddit.ro exists, i think

midwest.social is sorta the defacto US-specific instance despite the name pointing to a specific region.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 1 points 26 minutes ago

Ah, that makes sense from the name.

Oh, I thought their server was located in a different country. It's a bad idea to have a server in a location that the US government has authority over.

[–] SirQuack@feddit.nl 6 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Lemmy.world is hosted in the Netherlands, if I'm not mistaken.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

That's what I thought. I don't know if any big ones are hosted in the US.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 hours ago

Quite surprised to see Ukraine doesn't have its own instance

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 21 points 6 hours ago

My instance is Slovenian, you can add it to the list

[–] JubilantJaguar@lemmy.world 23 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

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.

ml represents all dictatorships...

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 29 minutes ago

Dictatorship of the proletariat, sure. But not for long IMO.

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Well I guess this is only the domain and their server us hosted elsewhere. But good point.

[–] JubilantJaguar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

True, but it still gives the Malian government an ultimate authority over the domain, which just seems completely dumb to me. The also-semi-failed Libya has ultimate authority over ly domains (like bit.ly) and has actually used its power to shut down domains for being against Libyan law. Domain hacks are not just ugly, they're dumb.

Can somebody also make join-lemmy.org notice that our instance exists? Can't get it listed, even though we comply with the requirements for a while now.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 11 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It’s on the website now.

[–] mapto@feddit.bg 5 points 2 hours ago

Wow, not sure if you did something or it was there all along... But I used to search for it by language. And the language is not there anymore :D

But seriously, thank you.

[–] Krik@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

No Greece? Also no India, Indonesia and Japan? Damn that's unexpected.

[–] Trail@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The is a Greek sub, with a few news posts daily, but noone is really commenting yet.

I had left the Greek sub on Reddit a few years back because the mods were assholes, so I don't really miss a Greek sub to be honest.

[–] piracysails@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

Which one is the Greek community? Those that I found are dead.

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

Hello I live in the little gap there that is Belgium

[–] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 6 hours ago
