Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed?

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.
What language is used for the TOS?
I dunno either, whats your instance configured like? The TOS of my platform is written in German.
What language do the developers use?
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.
ALSO ALSO
the Fediverse is more than lemmy, you know that right?

I checked the main default Lemmy UI does not have filters. But my mobile Lemmy client (Eternity) do have.

Well sure. But that’s also because everyone else learned how to use English to communicate. So it FEELS like we’re all American. It’s a common thing in online spaces.
Maar als we allemaal terug zouden gaan naar onze eigen taal, voelt het hier een stuk minder Amerikaans.
I’ve literally had lengthy English conversations with other Dutch people online where we only figured out we were both Dutch twenty comments later

There is something so ironic about this post xD what about the other continents? I have been told they have people with internet access too xD
Well, there are a lot of penguin posts here.

That's not the issue. The issue is stuff like [email protected] which explicitly forbids world politics. It's an US politics only community.

I live in western Anatolia and enjoy the Mediterranean climate. This is one of the most popular tourist destinations for Arabs and Russians. In the eastern part of Turkiye's Mediterranean region, people sometimes take aim at the sun and shoot because of the heat.
Can't blame them!
I've never been to turkey, but have visited some of the Greek Islands very close to turkey and I love the nature there. Generally, I have a weakness for subtropical climates. The pale, brittle mountains and the herbs growing on them and scenting the air. It's awesome. Still hot as hell, but very pretty. The place in the middle east I visited was 99% desert and murderous heat. I think one of the days we had 50C+ heat. It was like breathing in oven heat. 8'D -

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
10 hours?. it's 8.

South Korea.
Still a democracy. They actually put CEO's in jail there.

as a person on a smaller instance, yes i like actually seeing things
You are confusing seeing other instances with "ALL". I just don't want to see what I am not subscribed to. Curation of all this crap just makes it so much better. And focused for that matter.

Sure, but the obsessive focus on econimic growth is directly responsible for their birthrate plummeting to a disasterous level. And well, they may still have a democracy and some CEO's may see jailtime there, but I have personally heard a few too many stories about the rich and powerful over there getting away with shit. Plus the country is pretty much owned and run by Samsung.
