Did you know? Lemmy instances with *key instances!

In case you've been interested in wading into microblogging and didn't feel like Mastodon was your thing, the Lemmy instance you're on might have a *key instance to check out!

I'm posting to your from Sharkey World, Lemmy World's Sharkey instance. However I was surprised to find that Programming Dev has an Iceshrimp instance over at Bytes. Meanwhile I first learned of Blahaj Zone from their Sharkey instance awhile before they spun up their lemmy instance.

One of the cool features of each of these is that even if you're not into microblogging, they also basically have a blogging feature built in alongside it in the form of a Pages feature. Prefer the long form? Write there and then easily turn around and share it with a microblog post.

Are there any other Lemmy instances out there running *key instances? Mention'em in the comments!

@VeSpectagles I wouldn't make myself dependent on whether the *key instance is by the same admins as the lemmy instance. The *key softwares are generally recommended if you want a lot of functions and a modern interface. I particularly like the Antennas / News Pickers, with which the content can be structured very well according to your own search terms (a kind of topic-specific timelines). The interaction with Lemmy also works well.
There is an instance list for #Sharkey and #Iceshrimp instances here
