A fresh, community-driven space for Europeans (and enthusiasts!) to connect, share, and support our local economies. Whether you're new or migrating from Reddit, here's everything you need to get started.
What is Europe Pub?
Europe Pub is a European social network built on Lemmy, a federated social network platform. Think of it like Reddit, but with a crucial difference: federation means you can interact with communities on other Lemmy networks worldwide without creating new accounts. One account, endless possibilities!

Same goals, different instances, mods, and admins.
This project aims to further strengthen the decentralization of the Fediverse.
I recommend subscribing to all BuyFromEU communities. This helps distribute power more evenly among moderators and administrators, reducing the risk of a few individuals having too much control. It also provides resilience against sudden outages, like what happened with feddit.de, ensuring continued accessibility and stability.
Lemmy.film went down, all of the content is still available at https://lemmy.world/c/moviesandtv@lemmy.film
Only if you also access it from lemmy.world or another instance that already cached it. Here on europe.pub for example, it's not accessible since it started after the server went down. Also different instances won't sync anymore.
But that is also true whatever the number of parallel communities you have, if the instance shuts down, the hosted community will be in the same situation.
That's why I propose to subscribe to similar communities on multiple instances. That makes the community as a whole more resilient.
At this very moment of we look at subscribers
People don't seem interested in subscribing in all the communities on a topic. One is usually enough, a second could be used for backup, but a third one?
You are very welcome to subscribe only to the first and second.
