I’d be pretty interested in an EA instance. If it were to happen then I guess it should happen soon, since it looks like a significant fraction of new accounts will be created in the next few weeks. Does anyone have expertise with this? I’d probably be able to provide some support in setting it up, but don’t currently have the time to lead on doing this.
FWIW—running an instance requires a lot of resources (operator time, care/feeding of services, moderation); I’d encourage only going down that route if enough folks are lined up to help run it!
There are already a few EA-themed instances. I chose not to join one because I didn’t want to create an alt account or leave mine, so I created a group for people who want the flexibility.
