What is a good strategy for new instances? (lemmy.world)

When creating a new instance or picking a instance to join, what is a good strategy that the user could follow?

Geolocation? Language? Subject?

I think that instances kind of naturally grow to "group" a specific subset of communities, but I may be completely wrong.

Any thoughts on that are highly appreciated.

I am on Feddit.uk and rather like the idea of geolocation instances - you can have a community with a similar name and purpose as those on another instance but it would get a local spin on it (see, for example, this discussion) It also lets you focus on what communities you need to create in the early days (see, for example, this).
