Might be a naive question but what prevents instance admins here on Lemmy to also give this information?

Nothing, though instances outside the US would have less reason to.

Only benefit is that it’s fragmented so there’s fewer people any individual instance can give information on.

Oh yeah that’s true, and also that’s why we should move away from lemmy.world. It’s great to welcome newcomers but it shouldn’t be where most users are.

.world is hosted in Finland, so theoretically they wouldn’t have to cooperate, but they’re pretty squeamish about standing up to corpos so I wouldn’t count on it.
