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 27 points 2 days ago (1 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.

Don't ever look into Indian politics. It will fry your brain.

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

Someone made a mistake? Outrageous.

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

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day 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)

[–] MystValkyrie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

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.

Are there no other places than Europe or America?

[–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 9 points 2 days ago

Nope. Only America and Europe have internet, silly.

@Mika@sopuli.xyz !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world I'm Brazilian and oftentimes the "All" feed across the entire Lemmy ecosystem feels, in fact, like a smoothie mashup between European-specific political issues and USian-specific political issues, so, when it comes to the phenomenon that the European Fedizens feel on Lemmy, not only we feel the same, but we, Fedizens from the Global South, we feel it twice!

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

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 20 points 2 days 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.

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

[–] Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (8 children)

Yeah, with a few exceptions, if you are in Europe you can likely look at our news media and be like "Ha, well, at least I am not there"

Hello Europoors, from a fellow poor American.

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 65 points 3 days ago (18 children)

c’est parce que lemmy.world (et la plupart des instances) est anglophone, donc a un biais américain/britannique

moi je propose que tout le monde parle dans sa langue maternelle, pis de toute façon les logiciels de traduction sont rendus assez bon on va pouvoir se comprendre quand même

I get the same feeling watching the Warner-Discovery owned Polish TV station "TVN".

It's always funny to see Europeans complain about US hegemony

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If Europeans really wanted more content on .world, they would stop taking month long beach vacations and spend more of their 10 hours workdays shit posting from the company toilet

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

[–] gnufuu 1 points 1 day ago

Nobody was complaining about the English language
