This is so cool.

My OH doesn't do socmed but uses forums a lot. This could well swing it for them to join the Fediverse!

@dansup Having flagship instances at the top of results isn't likely to help with federation 🤷

@dansup nice! small bug report, it does display non ascii domains like this xn--y9aey5fdz.xn--y9a3aq (i tested searching for blogging/writefreely/all/small/established.

@dansup great work! But i think this needs filters for moderation policies at least in rough categories like "libertarian, liberal, strict, ultra strict".

@dansup

Suggestion 1: "Asia" is too broad of a category. Might want to break it up.

Suggestion 2: Maybe add one more filter for the server's default/recommended language?

@dansup this looks really good! Nice work 👍

@dansup Really nice. Any way to help translating? Would love to help onboarding my French friends 😁

@dansup so it's a site for picking instance?

@dansup some of the suggested platforms have very vague or overly technical descriptions making it unclear what they are for if you haven’t heard of them before

@dansup I dont think this works as is: step 2 is "choose platform". The naive user has _no idea_ on platforms. How are they supposed to choose here?
I would suggest that as a _last_ step, with preselecting all as the default
IMHO :)

(why would anyone be selecting by technology anyway?!?!)

(and, definitely, if you get only one choice in step 2 it should be skipped completely. I picked 'photography" when experimenting, and got only pixelfed and assumed it meant the main pixedfed instance, not the technology...)

but love the concept!!!!! :)
