I hate reddit because of the toxic community. You say something even slightly which people don't agree with, you're heavily criticized and downvoted to hell. On top of that, the popular and all page is filled with American news, American stuff, All about USA. As a non American it gets very annoying very soon. I do like some of the communities especially for tech support. Or rather Linux support. I hope Lemmy develops and has great success in future. Good luck guys and thank you!
I agree with that, and really hope we can avoid it. Like by having better support for different languages.
Or tags!
I mean, I guess you tried. Nothing says this is an American community more than this :grinning squinting face:

laughs in Antifa being a worldwide ideology
You think Antifa is American?
If you didn't mean it to be, then it's probably better to say that this instance is Anti-fascist.
Because Antifa is being used a lot recently regarding a specific political movement in America.
I mean what I said. The first Antifa was founded 100 years ago in Germany, and the name literally means "anti-fascist action". So if you have a problem with that, this instance is not for you.
That's not true at all. Antifa has a long history in Europe, these are some groups are associated with the name antifa and they are a lot older than the current Trump namecalling.
