Not federated Lemmy instances? (self.fediverse)

Do you know any Lemmy instances not federated with other ones, living by themselves? Do you know any interesting or creative use case for a not federated instance?

Yeah, waaaay back in the day there was a couple private message boards I was in for stuff like sports.

Nowadays there's a lot better options for organization, but via one of the big companies which requires accounts and things to happen on their server.

A closed Lemmy server at a discreet address has a lot of advantages compared to a Discord group for example.

I'd never thought of it, but it could be a thing.
