Example; midwest.social, lemmy.ca, lemmy.perthchat.org. It seems like a no brainer that midwesters, canadian and australians would sign up at those instances respectively, but instead they end up not there.

yeah, beyond the balkanizing of activity point this is a big one: there will be very few locals to begin with, and they’ll probably want to go where discussion is, not congregate in a mostly dead instance. so it’s a problem of getting a large enough group to move onto these instances to make them active, to draw further activity, etc.
