I would recommend to browse press.coop and (maybe) newsie.social instances.

Thanks! I'm still getting a hang of instances. Search too is a learning curve.

How do you browse a specific instance while logged into your (different) instance?

I use Ice Cubes client on my iOS. And it has a feature called "Local timelines". I just add an interesting instances there and read it without any problems, just like if it was my local timeline.

Journa.host was intended as an instances for journalists. I was able to track news by following both its local feed and following some of the members posting on it.

And then they started hosting transphobic content and refused to follow their own instance's rules, so almost all other instances defederated.

Oh, I had no idea. That must be pretty frustrating for the decent journalists who joined there.
