I have a friend who’s thinking about checking out the fediverse, and is looking for more aerospace (& maybe mechanical?) engineering-focused spaces. Do you guys have a suggested Lemmy, Piefed, or Mastodon instance/community that focuses on those topics? Maybe even a STEM community could be good enough. I know most of us are tech nerds on here, but we’re more computer focused tech nerds 😅

My only requirement is that the instance can be viewed without sign-in, as I don’t want to force them to make an account to check it out.

    Lots of great STEM communities exist on mander.xyz, but it’s an older and sometimes very slow Lemmy instance, so I would recommend accessing them via a more modern and far easier to use PieFed instance such as PieFed.social or PieFed.zip, e.g. no login needed to view https://piefed.zip/c/astronomy@mander.xyz.
