Are there any instances besides .ml and hb which are leftist and didn't defederate? (lemmy.ml)

I don't want to use hb or lg because of some instances which defederated having queer communities I want access to.

I've noticed other instances which identify as leftist have lg defederated: namely dolarpunk and blahaj.

.ml can get laggy at times and I want to take the weight of my browsing elsewhere, but I'm not ready to make my own instance.

I want the instance to be leftist so I don't risk catching a ban for being leftist, and I want access to lemmygrad, blahaj, solarpunk and .ml. It would also be nice if it was somehow established so I didn't fear it disappearing.

It may be silly but I don't want more than one account because it feels like I'd be cheating. πŸ™ˆ

Sorry for asking but I failed to find anything on my own.

Is .ml leftist again? For the longest time it was overrun by ledditors, but maybe things have swung back. There are other nominally leftist instances, but I think the only close-to-good ones are grad and HB (.ml not withstanding). The others, without exception, are social-chauvinist. That's certainly not to cast aspersions on you if you have use for them, but you were asking about their politics.

The liberal is right in their narrower prescription, you do need multiple accounts if you want all of those.

Lemm.ee seems fine so far I can see latestagecapital posts from lemmygrad and queer posts from blahaj and the likes. Also get stuff from .ml Don’t really see any hexbear around as much tho unless it’s on a comment

Many if not most of the lemm.ee posters that come here are basically peak lib brainrot, though. I can't imagine any 'grad posters wanting to be there, personally it sounds like hell.

Lemm.ee sadly isn't leftist. Plenty of conservative users there. I think the admin is hands off.
