    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.

      I never downvote Canada/Europe posts and I’m always happy to see the German memes materialize to take over the front page at like 3:00pm even though I don’t understand 95% of the content on ich_iel. I do kinda wish there was a larger international community on Lemmy.world.

  • Dasus@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    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

        And they removed Stinky. That’s what the news was about. Since it happened in the US the mod removed it as “doesn’t belong to world news, purely US internal news”, despite it being reported on Yle.fi and being about most known Finnish characters.

Sounds interesting 🤔
