I really like to see communities like lemmy.film, mtgzone.com, and programming.dev and wish there was an instance about literature.

Try literature.cafe - seems to return a sever error at the moment.

If that doesn't work, you can get in via: !fiction@literature.cafe or !libraries@literature.cafe

I'm on Feddit.uk and think more local instances like Feddit.de and Feddit.it would be a good thing.

There's currently:

feddit.at.
feddit.ch.
feddit.cl.
feddit.de.
feddit.dk.
feddit.fun.
feddit.ie.
feddit.it.
feddit.jp.
feddit.nl.
feddit.nu.
feddit.nz
feddit.ro.
feddit.rocks.
feddit.uk.

They're mostly country-specific, it looks like.
I have an account on feddit.nl, although it was badly chosen because I'm not in the Netherlands.
I suppose the only problem is how much 'feddit' sounds like 'reddit', maybe.

Thanks for the list.

I have an account on feddit.nl, although it was badly chosen because I’m not in the Netherlands.

I can see why that might be an issue.

I suppose the only problem is how much β€˜feddit’ sounds like β€˜reddit’, maybe.

Problem or the solution?

A sports instance would be nice, just to reduce the size of block lists for anyone not interested in it (every team has a separate community, plus all the meme and satire combinations)
