Defaulting to any one instance would be against the goals of federation, I think.

lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/37336391 (pinned on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com ), nowadays I basically go with:

" Lemmy has 47k monthly active users

https://discuss.online/ if you want a server located in the USA (content is still accessible from any server, the most difference latency)
https://sopuli.xyz/ if you want a server located in the EU
https://vger.app/settings/install if you want an app

Feel free if you have any questions"

A geographically based default is a great idea.

  I know I favour this, but I may be biased.
  
  My main tip for picking an instance is go for a region or topic specific instance so your local feed is manageable and relevant.
