I want to know if there are other instances that federate with more instances than lemmy.ml, have similar rules regarding bigotry and spamming, and run the latest release of the UI: 0.17.4-rc.4 and BE: 0.17.4-rc.1.
Everyone federates with almost everyone else. I only know of the Lemmygrad instance that is blocked by some.
The join-lemmy site has links to instance lists. https://join-lemmy.org/instances – the “Awesome Lemmy Instances” shows if they allow “NSFW” content. The the-federation.info page has their software version in the list.
And here is a good guide on how it currently works to find and join communities (things will develop and get more easy): How To Join Lemmy: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/61827.
Welcome!
edit: ah yeah, and of course https://lemmy.directory as was mentioned by @Barbarian@sh.itjust.works, which tries to provide an aggregate of … well, all content on the network.
