That's really cool. I love the idea of Lemmy instances being their own specific cultures, and the idea of an industry/field specific instance is honestly one of the coolest aspects of Lemmy. I'd love to see, like, artist based instances really take off, for example, or even like an instance specifically for fast food workers. Might help get some kind of union action going eventually if it really took off

That's the idea. Right now most mainstream audiences seem to prefer X to moving away from that, but it sure would be nice to have alternative options. Such as Mbin that will check both Mastodon and Lemmy instances.
