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!

No Greece? Also no India, Indonesia and Japan? Damn that's unexpected.

lm.korako.me is a Japanese Lemmy instance run by @karasu_[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.

Thank you for mentioning our server.

In Japan, there is no culture similar to Reddit in the first place, so Lemmy has not been widely accepted, and there are very few users. I tried promoting it before, but it had no effect. Similarly, Mastodon groups are rarely used except for a few cases. Even if you come across Japanese users elsewhere, most of them can speak English and have used Reddit in the past.

Moreover, as is the case for me, most Japanese people do not understand any language other than Japanese—not even English. Because of this, even if they connect with other global servers, they cannot communicate due to language and cultural differences, which I believe has led to this situation.

The is a Greek sub, with a few news posts daily, but noone is really commenting yet.

I had left the Greek sub on Reddit a few years back because the mods were assholes, so I don't really miss a Greek sub to be honest.

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!

There is (was?) an Indian one... but run by hindutva (extreme right-wing) nationalists, so I think we can skip that one.

There is also one that is located in Japan, but no idea if it can be described as an instance for Japan.
