Every Country That Has Their Own Lemmy Instance
-
There was a Vietnamese instance for a short while, but it seems like they got scared off with how restrictive their governments internet policy is.
Fuck really? I liked that guy
-
Can you please share what they are
Someone else already did here:

I remember googling "which countries are still communist" back around 2018ish and Russia being at the top of many lists. It's just another ripple effect from propaganda that hasn't died out yet.
That being said, fighting propaganda is much easier with gentler words instead of name-calling in my experience
Lol. Must knowledgeable liberal.

where did i name call? i was just pointing out that it's some tankie propaganda. i think your post was overall fine. ohhhh, wait did you think i was calling you a tankie? shit, i didn't mean that, i just meant the propaganda was tankist in origin
i just meant the propaganda was tankist in origin
??????
It absolutely fucking is not. It's origin is clueless libs whos only knowledge of the subject dates back to the cold war.

All communist countries used the communism idea to trick their people into a fascist government.
Liberals turning the word "fascist" from a specific term that allowed the analysis and identification of specific political phenomena, into just yet another synonym for "the bad guys", has been instrumental in allowing actual fascism to rise again unchecked.

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!
Cool map.
I was expecting a list.

Ireland has an instance?

What websites do you notice a lot of Spanish people using?
The biggest forum style ones are https://forocoches.com/foro/forumdisplay.php?f=2 & https://www.meneame.net/
But also algorithm driven ones like Instagram and tiktok. -
seriously speaking, how much work is to host an instance actually? Besides buying the domain and getting it up and running on some cloud/homelab? The are any security concerns or maintenance that would take a lot of my time? Do I need to put some effort in instance level moderation, or that comes from communities? How many resources/hardware an instance uses per user?
I don't know from experience, but I've seen mentions of it taking serious work, including dealing with CP content being uploaded (federated?) to random instances...

feddit.uk represent! Best inna worl'! Oo are ya, oo are ya? Come an' 'ave a go if you think yer'ardinuff!
And so forth, I'm sure you get the general gist.
This is why I’m on a German one as a Brit. /s

Which one is the Greek community?
Those that I found are dead.[email protected] is an Mbin community with the most threads in all of Mbin. Even more than mine!
-
No Greece? Also no India, Indonesia and Japan? Damn that's unexpected.
lm.korako.me is a Japanese Lemmy instance run by @[email protected] . It's small, but it counts!
I'd love to see a revised map with all these ones from the comments added in.

I'm fairly certain AI tools exist to aid in scanning for child pornography. I haven't looked into it at all though so I dont know its efficacy.

Lemmy.world
LW is European

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

Setting up is easy, but keeping it up to date is often troublesome. Releases are far and few between and as such, whenever there is one, it includes a lot of changes. That leads to some instances having trouble pretty much every time; I've been on the unlucky side enough times to be wary.
Lemmy.cafe runs on 2 dual vcore 4gb ram VMs on digitalocean - one for db, another for lemmy itself.
Lemmy prides itself in being written in rust, but it leaks memory like a sieve - I've had split up the containers into smaller tasks (there's an official flag you can pass to it), double them up and set memory limits. That way one something gets killed by the kernel it's not really noticable to the end user.
Running a public instance of anything is a security concern, let alone alpha-beta software like lemmy. If you do run it on your homelab at home - at leat get the cheapest vm in the cloud to hide your home IPs. You'd probably need to set up a wireguard tunnel to ensure outgoing federation does not reveal the IPs to other instances.
Instance level moderation is up to you. Don't be too dreamy - nobody will join your instance just because you have it running. Other than spammers and voting bots, that is. Moderation tools are just not there, so you'll have to fiddle in the db directly.
Having said all that - if all you want is a personal inatance - go for it! With sign ups disabled it's a much less stressful experience!

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

Awesome, I can’t wait to see it! It wouldn’t take too much to get the whole island on board.
Make sure it’s far away from a Volcano though.
