There's a beautiful sweet spot between the Americans going to bed and the Germans waking up where Its not US politics but I can still understand whats being said.

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago

Hey, some of us just want to have the biggest instance so we don't have to rely on people subscribing to things. (Australia, I have 2 accounts)

[–] Sarmyth@lemmy.world 51 points 1 day ago

It makes me laugh when Europeans makes these comments. If you want to see more European centric content... post it. Its free to do.

People write as though Americans need to stop interacting with the platform, when the solution is really to increase European engagement, which falls on them to do.

Oh boy, wait until they find out about the World Series of anything.

Are there no other places than Europe or America?

[–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 10 points 1 day ago

Nope. Only America and Europe have internet, silly.

Some twat of a mod removed a news article, a very popular post which I linked, because "it's internal US news". It was literally from the national broadcasting company of Finland, talking about our national Moomin characters. But no.

Lemmy is filled with Russian pretending to be Americans/Canadians/whatever

It’s also nice when they come into our country-specific subs to tell us how things are in the US, as we get so little news about the US.

[–] Holyhandgrenade@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (7 children)

I hear more news from the US than my own country. Granted, my own country's politics are people respectfully discussing policy matters while US politics is like a circus and a pro wrestling league combined, with unimaginably high stakes.

I would love to see less America doom and gloom on lemmy. Why should we be the center of everything? More European- and Canada-centric posts, please.

I do! I need to be more diligent about seeking out new communities and subscribing to them, but I’m an ALL sort kind of person at heart, I guess.

I mean... it's a nice distraction from what's going on here in Europe. Sort of escapism if you want.

Hello Europoors, from a fellow poor American.

Sometimes my feed is like half German memes

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago (6 children)

I wish I was in Europe. Where I could pretend that news about our downfall was for a time at a distance and would never affect me.

[–] Mika@sopuli.xyz 22 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Oh don't worry it will affect us alright, it's just that we don't have any say in whatever happens there.

Apparently only USA speaks English and we should all be speaking German or something to show we're not American?
