The issue is that - LW is too big - SJW has a non neutral name - Lemmy.ca advertised itself as Canadian - Feddit.org has a meta community in German

There is Lemmy.zip, but they are also very light on defederation. Lemmy.dbzer0 blocks lemmygrad but still federates with hexbear

Do you have any other suggestion?

Yea... I get what you mean. There isn't really an instance that is "not zero defederation"-moderated and general enough for all people if you take out lemmy.world. That's honestly kind of surprising, it feels like a niche that more players could fill. But I guess that's how lemmy.world got as big as it did.

If you had to give one suggestion, maybe. But still, any instance matching geographical location or a specific of your interest would be better.

Indeed, but the thing is generally, people just one want URL, and that's it.

You'll see a comment on how to join Lemmy, in this kind of scenario I just give one link
