My instance(endlesstalk.org) is very small, but you are welcome there.
I think most instances besides beehaw.org are federated with lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. So you should be able to look at join-lemmy or lemmyverse for servers to join.
If you want to check if a instance is defederating a specific instance, you can go to /instance on the instance and look under Blocked Instances
How come beehaw is not federated?
It’s a safe space in the literal sense. They defederated to keep out hate speech cross contamination.
It's complicated, but in a nutshell, their users have faced discrimination and unpleasant communication from some of the other instances, hence they decided to wall themselves in (it's a very inclusive community, so it's a bit ironic)
They defederated from lemmy.world + sh.itjust.works(Not lemmy.ml) and you can see their reasoning here
Wasn't defederation from world temporary?
Yeah, until there are better tools than defederation to limit communication between instances. Might take a while though and I think they only said they would re-evaluate it, so no guarantee(more detail in the link above)
Presumably still is.
lemm.ee is solid
use https://federation-checker.vercel.app/ to check is the instance you are considering is blocked by others. and what the instace blocks.
I don’t know what you consider medium sized, but lemmy.sdf.org is.
