But here's the thing. People feel both European and from their countries, and having the Local feed with their language community is a nice way to discover local content in their language.
If anything, I've seen all the instances mods with instance communities very positive about having them there, those are usually very active communities.
I'm not advocating for a single european instance for the whole fedi.
quite the opposite, i'm saying we need a european instance detached and then a lot of other locals instances to show up
Your points don't really invalidate the reasons I've said btw ^^'
Even if we'd go to the ''one euro sub in each euro instance'' there would still be some kind of coordination or landing page for the users that need exactly that and to share the pros of hosting them without ending up as usual with everything in some server or another
Ah, I see. In that case I would say that admins are hard to find, good admins even more, so until one shows up with the will to host an EU instance the current situation is good enough 😄
The EU communities already link in each other sidebars. We can maybe update that, but at the moment it should already be quite easy to find the others one if you're in one of them
