Is there a "normie" or more mainstream instance for Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

Hi! In thinking about how to help the fediverse grow, I wonder if there are more mainstream Lemmy instances?

I've pointed a couple folks to Lemmy.world and it's uhhh, pretty hard Left for them (as one girl, who volunteered for the Democrats said "I just got yelled at because I can't be Left wing unless I want to destroy capitalism? Which feels weird.") We're much farther Left than reddit which itself was definitely Left of centre...

I don't know if decentralized open source social media actually attracts many mainstreamers but assuming we want to grow the fediverse, I'd like to have somewhere I can point people to without feeling very nervous for them.

Thanks!

How does Europe treat the Romani?

I mean, that probably depends on the country, right? Tbf I don't know much about them.

The point simply is that Canada isn't especially left. We can't be, since we're joined at the hip to the USA.
