   Hey all, I figured I'd #AskFedi for some opinions on this one. An #LGBTQ+ media nonprofit I'm doing some work for are finally joining Mastodon! They just need to pick a server, and have so far mentioned tech.lgbt, queer.party, lgbtqia.space, and lgbtq.io (which doesn't seem to exist any more?) - but I wanted to get people's opinions on their knowledge and/or experience of these or other appropriate servers for such an organisational account. Thanks in advance!

     @MediaActivist There's also mastodon.ngo for nonprofits. That's where I was hosting the account of the nonprofit I used to work for.

     @MediaActivist I don't have any suggestions for instances to join but maybe they'd be interested in having their own instance hosted on their own domain? My single-user instance is hosted on https://masto.host for $20/months (which is overkill for what i need solo). If the org was willing to pay a bit for hosting and didn't have super high compute/federation requirements then they could go that route. There's a lot of freedom and resiliency you can buy by going with your own instance fwiw.
