I went through all the instances listed on lemmyverse.net and added almost all of the specialized ones I found. The list is about 3 times as large now! Definitely getting Old Web vibes. Is it time to start making webrings again?
Here's the additions:
Topic/audience focused:
disflux.org - "disflux is a lemmy instance focused on D.I.Y. and self sufficiency type communities."

communick.news - "Given that Communick is a privacy-focused service provider who supports open source and the indieweb, you can expect some of this content to gravitate towards that"
lemmy.intai.tech - "Integrated AI - Home and forum for AI Enthusiasts" Front end broken? Doesn't list any posts, but direct links to them still work
lemmy.zip - "A Lemmy community for everyone, with a focus towards tech, PCs, and gaming."
Location/language focused:
(For some of these it's a little unclear to me whether they should be associated with a country or a language. Please let me know if anything needs to be corrected.)
Ostrobothnia? - pappdi.in - "Väälkumi ti hanje Lemmy institution which is intended for Osterbottins, Finnish Swedes, Finns in general, and other loose people." Translation help please?
The first one says that the problem was introduced in lemmy 0.18, but lemmy.graphics is still on 0.17.3, so I'm not sure exactly what's going on in this case.
Yep, that one is in the main list in the pinned post. Do you know if it should be associated specifically with Spain, or just the Spanish language in general?
Oh, my bad, I didn't realize this was the list of the added ones.

I would leave as "Spanish language" because the description says "La comunidad de lemmy en español" ("The lemmy community in Spanish"). Although looking at the communities, it seems to be more focused on Spain.
I am hosting a topic specialized instance that's open to the public, it's literature.cafe
it's a lil empty right now but adding more comms and federating some communities into it
It's for book lovers and writers (and really anyone else)
I'm currently getting this when trying to load it:

There was an error on the server. Try refreshing your browser. If that doesn't work, come back at a later time. If the problem persists, you can seek help in the Lemmy support community or Lemmy Matrix room.
Once things are running smoothly, please make a new thread (not comment) to announce it so that people subscribed to this magazine will see it.
