English based Platform? Uuuuh, buddy the fediverse is a global project and hosted in several different countries.

What language are we communicating in? What language is the default for this platform? What language is used for the TOS? What language do the developers use? The Fediverse is a global project, but it’s also mostly English based.

I dunno, whats your instance configured like? Mine defaults to German.
I dunno either, whats your instance configured like? The TOS of my platform is written in German.
A mix of Rust, TypeScript, and PLpgSQL; and also French as Dessalines is a frenchman, but for global communication I guess the team uses English (which is still an official language in the EU)
Just because you overwhelmingly see English content doesn’t mean that its mostly like that.

Literally the whole point of this post is that most of Lemmy is revolves around Americans, and I’m saying that this makes sense because Lemmy and the Feddiverse at large are based around English as the primary language. Since the US has by the largest amounts of native English speakers, it makes sense that American related content dominates. This is common sense, idk what you’re trying to go for here. That the Feddiverse has other languages? Okay, I never said that Lemmy or the Fediverse is exclusively English, I’m saying it’s the most dominant language.
