Welcome!
Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.
And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ค๐

We need some new (a couple) of general-use instances to help direct this traffic! Piefed.social will help you and redirect traffic to you.
PieFed.co.za is hosted in Germany
It's kinda geared towards South Africans, but it'll be a place where anyone is welcome. I still need to do some housekeeping though.
I really love that you're building a South African instance!
As much as the influx of Europeans to the fediverse is lovely to see, the European/North American bias here is really striking. That's of course not a problem of too many Europeans, but rather not enough other people.
Thanks, it's quite fun to setup and run an instance and helping the community grow. Hopefully I can get a bunch of South African and Africans to join my instance.
But anyone is welcome.
Do you have another admin?
No, I need to figure that out. You're welcome to be one.
Thank you for the offer, but I don't have the sysadmin skills, and I already have a bit too much on my plate as you can guess ๐
Cool Cool, I thought you might already have a lot on your plate
I'm working on getting https://nord.pub/ online!(rebrand from experimental nord.red) Well, it is online but I wanted proper HA, Backups, and some curated Topics.
Hosted in the Nordics and committed to not being dependent on US tech. (using Hetzner Finland and BunnyCDN)
Awesome. When you're ready, go to https://nord.pub/admin/instance_chooser and fill in the form.
You're going for a general use instance?
Yeah, general use with somewhat if a focus on the Nordics "market", but I'm not planning on launching competing communities against anything existing.
Sure, but I'm more thinking about increasing server spread across Piefed rather than specific communities as such.
Signed up! I still might stick to this account mainly, but a Nordic oriented Piefed instance is definitely appealing.
That would be great!
If by "direct traffic" you mean to send them there, then I'd say we don't need that, and shouldn't want it. The whole reason federation works is because control is spread out. Giving one, or a few, instances control of most of the content and users is a horrible idea and begging for issues. Speaking of, if you're on lemmy.world, you should consider spreading elsewhere. At least don't send new people there.
A small instance isn't going to grow past PieFed.social in 1 day, let alone an actually big instance like Lemmy.world. If an instance grows too big then we just stop suggesting it and pick a new instance to suggest.
People still direct people to Lemmy.world. A lot of people don't understand the benefits of federation still and want everyone on one instance. They won't stop when an instance gets too large.
Well yeah but those aren't the people reading this thread
I don't know. I wouldn't be so sure. It's a good idea to spread the message anywhere.
Quokk.au is general use and international.
Yep we already have a bunch of good instances ready to go:
...and ~60 more which seem to be for personal or closed-group use but which could open their doors any time - https://piefed.fediverse.observer/list
i love living in lgb~~t~~q~~i~~a country
And a million more on the way!
The instance chooser thing is a great addition to PF to help get users distributed across instances.
Piefed.zip is from the UK
