Brand new instance dedicated to gardening, check it out!
Could probably create some communities there specific to flowers, vegetables, etc.
They could use some help getting users and getting federated–which will only help Lemmy overall, as lemmy.ml and beehaw.org are getting killed at the moment.
My guess is that it takes some time to work its way through the federation. I had to manually add it just now to the Fediverse Observe, and got this message when I did so:
Update: working now, and is listed there: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/go&domain=thegarden.land
Tried clicking from lemmy.world and cannot subscribe because I’m logged into lemmy.world but not thegarden.land.
