What do you think might be some fun, positive ways for instances to distinguish themselves? (lemm.ee)

Instances of any fediverse software, to be clear.

I am a big fan of content-specific instances. Some instances off the top of my head that fit this description:

bookwormstory.social - Instance about the Ascendance of a Bookworm series
ani.social - Instance about anime/manga/Japanese media
slrpnk.net - Instance focused on the climate crisis and related issues
programming.dev - Instance focused on software development
startrek.website - Instance about Star Trek
literature.cafe - Instance about books and writing

...and I am sure there are many others. I just think that having a focus like that provides a more interesting local instance environment than a large, generalist instance, though both have a place.

Crazy that there's an instance about Ascendance of a Bookworm. I've just been reading this!
