And I had the pleasure to chat with the admin of a nice and progressive Mastodon instance. I had heard about Quey.org, my feline loving friend Georgia hosts he nice @cats curated feline posting account there.
@freemo vouched for Quey's admin, which is a huge endorsement in my view too.
Plus, European location, under European Union Privacy laws -- this is something high on my considerations list.
#Instance #Recommendation goes to our friends at Quey.org -- https://quey.org/about/more
...to be added in a upcoming new version 2 of my "Why Choosing an Instance is Important" blog post -- quite popular and very satisfying to me as a curious #cyberpunk and author.
Read original post for now?

I know the admin of Quey personally. He lives in the Netherlands and we have hung out in the past. Good guy.
I wouldn't label quey as "progressive" though. They aim to be politics neutral last I saw.
thats a matter of opinion. I dont think its accurate to describe Europe or the Netherlands as progressive in the least.
On certain issues they are liberal, on others conservative. But progressive would be a less apt label.
Hell I specifically moved to Europe to get away from the extreame progressives in the USA specifically because europe has less progressive mentality than the USA. For example I am in the top tax bracket in both the USa and europe and pay significantly less taxes in europe overall.
