  • There are treaties giving certain rights to First Nations/Native American groups that you don’t get from being a US citizen. One of those is the right to freely travel between the US and Canada for hunting and fishing on traditional lands. These are rights Canada recognized when they signed the Jay Treaty in 1794. I don’t know if that’s the exact treaty that would be used in this case, but the relationships between and the legal rights of Native Americans and First Nations aren’t always cut off at the border.



  • If you go here you can sort by size, uptime, etc, I’m not sure if anyone has made a curated list anywhere. There’s only a few instances with 100+ users, but since you’re seeing all the same fediverse content anyway it doesn’t matter much. My policy was to just pick an instance I trusted (already trusted Blahaj, so that was easy).

    I would say it’s probably a good idea to pick an instance with at least 30-40 people, because the more people who have subscribed to remote communities, the more content will automatically federate to the instance (therefor making it easier for you to find new content).
