@Mastodon
How about also interest based?
There are some for special interests
Like punkstodon.de for punk music, metalhead.club for metal heads, infosec.exchange for tech security interested people and so on.
So just the region is maybe too less?
At least it's something to be considered after the first iteration

@joergi @Mastodon hey! This experiment will be for general purpose servers only, but we'll be looking into running other onboarding experiments—including for special interest servers—soon.

@joergi @Mastodon Correct if I'm wrong, but a special interest -server where majority of the people speak a language foreign to you and refer to irl -events far from you locale, might not be the nicest first experience even if you live for the subject. This onboarding -thing sounds like a newbie-feature: someone said mastodon would be worth trying, and they try to cut it by themselves. People who want to get to a hobby server would mostly have the server researched beforehand, right?
