It's been around for many years now and famously was used in the consultations for the constitution of Iceland. We also used it in Bulgaria back in 2013 and had a community of more than 3000 users, but it lost traction due to being ignored by politicians and controversial debates.
Can somebody also make join-lemmy.org notice that our instance exists? Can't get it listed, even though we comply with the requirements for a while now.
You could subscribe to the Lemmy community by following e.g. @fediverse@lemmy.world from mastodon. If you're familiar with https://a.gup.pe/ , it's exactly the same from mastodon. The difference is that with lemmy you can also access without passing through mastodon.
Yes, this is a Bulgarian instance, you'll notice it's quite small. That's because it's pretty young and people like you haven't seen it yet. :) We have a few reddit refugees on board. Beyond Bulgarian-language discussions, we also host some regional ones, like the one in this thread or !blacksea@feddit.bg. So you're welcome to join, as usual.
As for reasons behind Bulgarian hacker/pirate culture, history has lots to explain. Quite a bit written about it, but I'm a fan of the Guardian.
PS: Lemmy federation is a pain, I still cannot respond to your more recent comments.

It's not a straightforward task. And it's controversial is you want to avoid multiple registrations.
