I feel as if such a 'list' being public would only create more strife between instances. Not EVERYONE from .ml is a tankie, some people didn't know when they signed up and just never left as an example.
It would also be massively biased to whomever maintains the list. Not sure I'd trust such a thing.
I created my account in 2020, waaay before the Reddit API thing. Back then there were only like three instances to pick from

nah. I have found .ml to be pretty opinionated but diverse since signing up. aside from some minor inter/intra instance strife, its been good.
I think most people eventually get over themselves and recognize the social and technical usefulness of .ml - having a bleeding edge, well federated instance where you find the beehaws, worlds, hexbears and others is... interesting. the flavor of each instance really comes through and you can still curate your own feed as needed.
What is your opinion on the instance-wide bans that happen? https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
i try to balance my personal distaste for general bans with the much desired trait that every instance can be an island in a larger ocean if it wishes. so, as long as i have the ability to choose home instances based on my favored criteria, its ok with me. making sure that new users fully understand they have choice and can get vastly different experiences based on instance can be a challenge, however.
consolidation around large instances is more of a worry, but over the last 6 months or so I feel (100% subjective) that there has been much more activity on smaller, topic-centric instances. I try to respectfully engage with them as much as possible - sometimes even successfully.
I am pretty happy with lemmy and the lemmy trendlines. its the only social watering hole I visit now.
It would likely be manually curated by an individual asking the people that run the instances. It would hopefully not be interpreted.
I'm Sorry but philosophical perspectives can only be known through interpretation. Ask any two people what a communist is and you WILL get two different answers, obviously there will be many similarities between the two answers but the nuance will be different.
All that being said...
If this is something you really want, I'm sure it won't be too hard to get ahold of the instance admins to get the answers you desire. And if you make a place, or community or website or whatever to host that information, we'll, I'm sure it won't be too hard.
