      Each instance admin can check a box to require email. It reduces spam accounts and reduces work for admins because users can perform password resets themselves.

        Why does it matter if the instance is in the US? Just more susceptible to government pressure? Mine is in the US, as am I, I haven’t seen any action from them, their whole thing is to be hands off which is why I chose them.
