You may want to consider to register your #coop outside of #FRG instead, and become a #EuropeanCooperative.

Even better yet, form #Association|s and #PlatformCooperative|s to run #Fediverse instances, and setup instances at already existing associations and #cooperative|s.

When establishing a #coop in #Europe, prefer the form of a #EuropeanCooperative (#SCE), and avoid to make your #headquarters in #FRG, because its #CooperativeLaw still contains inhibiting #Nazi regulations from #Y1934.
