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!
I’m based in Luxembourg, and so is Haidra. Therefore I think we have that covered, even if we’re not specifically country-based.
Let’s put !luxembourg@lemmy.world in lemmy.dbzer0.com 😁
But they’re landlubbers!
Luxembourg is landlocked, it’s not their fault.
But we have the Uewersauer lake!
Nice idea ! :D
Damn, I thought dbzer0 was greek. Cheers eitherway.
I am personally Greek, but I’m based in Luxembourg.
Oooh nice we got Luxembourg covered like sopuli.xyz!
Another cool fact about db0 ;)
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.
Hey. Cant believe my country is in there. Never knew that. Wonder what is the instance name.
What’s your country? Maybe we can help
Hey. Thanks for offering but i just found it.
No worries, glad you found it!
Lol. No worries. I prefer to keep it down low where i live. I found it anyway. Pretty easy to find it. Thanks!
Staying private is understandable.
I prefer to keep it down low where i live
Ah. Australian. ;)
Aaaah, a fellow Batman Beyond enjoyer!
Ireland has an instance?
I too also want to know what the Irish instance is.
There isn’t one yet as I made a mistake. We need someone to create feddit.ie.
What’s the French one?
Which country is Block Island south of Hawaii?
I’m pretty sure that’s French Polynesia
Damn Sunshine, you’ve been popping off on content. Formally, thank you 🙏
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…
Dictatorship of the proletariat, sure. But not for long IMO.
Well I guess this is only the domain and their server us hosted elsewhere. But good point.
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
lydomains (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.

Mentioning the French troops was a bit offtopic. But my point stands. Mali is a semi-failed state that seems to have exchanged one set of foreign lords for another, much worse, set.
Don’t bother, he’s a pro-china anti-western shill, his comment history is a mess

Firstly, the French troops were invited by Mali’s government to help it put down its jihadist insurgents. The Russian ones were invited, in turn, for the same reason, after a media-propaganda campaign by Russia that played on historic animosity dating from the colonial period. A propaganda campaign filled with angry rhetoric and sounding much like your rant.
Meanwhile, Mali is still a semi-failed state with a jihadi problem which was caused by neither France nor Russia. And on top of that it now has brutal boorish Russian mercenaries instead of generally well-behaved French regular soldiers. Mali got a terrible deal and it was their own fault.
You know why I’m not embarrassed to say that? Precisely because I’m not a colonialist. I believe that Mali is not a child, it’s an adult. It has agency, it’s not a colony of anyone, it’s a sovereign country that can make choices for itself. If anyone’s views here are colonialist, it’s yours.
Cool map.
I was expecting a list.
Hey, where’s Norway? And Iceland?
Jlai.lu is more a francophone than strictly French instance, even if as far as I know most admins are French.
Ukraine has an instance: https://feddit.kyiv.ua/
The domain has expiried.
I am actually surprised they got that on the first place. That’s a very major domain name to have…
It looks like the major city names (and maybe others) are registered by the government and allow people to register subdomains.
You have to apply for a trademark to use the name.ua domain.
Thanks. Very interesting, I would think that is a nightmare for phishing and similar threats, but maybe they have good monitoring or oversight.
The admin is still figuring things out 🤣
The middle east is completely gray 🥲 (except Turkey but that instance is dead, I’m not even Turkish)
Looks like I will have to make an updated post with more detail after hearing all the feedback!
Thanks for doing that! It’d be helpful to have it in list form too, so we can help point people to instances based on location should they be interested:)
Did you mean…
the country club?
