"The government"? You're going to need to be more specific, there are literally hundreds if not thousands of governments.
That said, each instance of Lemmy is run differently, some are more restricted than others but "the government" wouldn't really have anything to do with administration unless it was hosting the instance or the person hosting it was acting on behalf of "the government" (aside from the laws that govern the location of the instance's host, of course).

Incidentally, I think some instances actually are, openly, run by governments.
I know about Mastodon instances run by the government, but are there any lemmy instances run by governments?
