I don't think their devs are having a hard time figuring out how to support different instance names...

Then why don't they accept any instance? Fediseer has an api where they can see the most reputable instances and limit to only allowing those reputable instances.

Because of what everyone else here is saying. If you're a company like Valve, you don't want to open a portal to undesirable content that isn't moderated. They chose the biggest instances with the most users because those are generally going to be the safest ones.

which is why im saying use fediseer so they dont have to hand pick 5 instances

You're missing the point. They chose those instances INTENTIONALLY. They don't need your solution because there is no problem. 🤦
