Maybe the problem is that in Europe our news are mostly in local languages. So, if I post something I would need to translate. Or one would need to share something from France24 (English), BBC, Euronews (English), etc. But, the content is not as comprehensive as the national newspapers…
Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed?

The good news is that we are quickly losing global relevance!

FinishingDutch@lemmy.world 7 months ago
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 :D
squaresinger@lemmy.world 7 months ago
That’s not the issue. The issue is stuff like !politics@lemmy.world which explicitly forbids world politics. It’s an US politics only community.
ADTJ@feddit.uk 7 months ago
Wow you’re right, didn’t realise that was explicit before.
Feels pretty selfish of them to do that on lemmy.world

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)

wait you can mute words on lemmy? that would be cool

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

Oh they actually specified “US”? Usually they just ramble on about the generic West.
BenLeMan@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Oh boy, wait until they find out about the World Series of anything.
dumbass@leminal.space 7 months ago
There’s a beautiful sweet spot between the Americans going to bed and the Germans waking up where Its not US politics but I can still understand whats being said.
NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 7 months ago
People use All?
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 7 months ago
as a person on a smaller instance, yes i like actually seeing things
NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 7 months ago
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.
buttnugget@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I do! I need to be more diligent about seeking out new communities and subscribing to them, but I’m an ALL sort kind of person at heart, I guess.
ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Certainly mixes things up compared to Local.
NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 7 months ago
I just go to my subscriptions. Then sort by scaled.
ms_lane@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Apparently only USA speaks English and we should all be speaking German or something to show we’re not American?

Ok
DrSoap@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Its funny cause no one in the US complained about all the brexit stuff a few years ago and we just read about neighboring politics. Shits a mess here rn and its in the news. Calm down people. You’ll have your mess too.
buttnugget@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Europeans are extremely fragile. I love my euro homies, but they are super butthurt about US world dominance.
Nangijala@feddit.dk 7 months ago
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
pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Well, there are a lot of penguin posts here.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 7 months ago
you want my several decades old stories about accidentally buying stickers with shaggy’s dick on them? it wasn’t in statesia but it might as well have been, let’s be honest
udon@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Are there no other places than Europe or America?
ConcernedCitizen@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Those place aren’t white.
Nangijala@feddit.dk 7 months ago
Nope. Only America and Europe have internet, silly.
Tuuktuuk@sopuli.xyz 7 months ago
There are. There are also Africa, Asia, Australia and Antarctic.
udon@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Well, that was more of a rhetorical question. This new European narrative is buzzing and I get it. But I think that any move forward should involve everyone who wants to co-create new rules and then play by them. Replacing America first with Europe first is just dumb.

I’d argue these are more unsafe for Americans than Europeans, y’all are the ones having to use the death traps.
Zink@programming.dev 7 months ago
Just item #731 on the long list of things that we in the US do objectively worse than the rest of the world, but not badly enough to get into the news or make people want to do anything about it.
Plus, you know, ignorance. If we polled the American public with the question “The US electrical plug design is the best in the world” I think the results would make us all have the same reaction as everything else coming out of the US: Not surprised, but still shocked and disappointed to have the ugly truth confirmed.

Sarmyth@lemmy.world 7 months ago
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.

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

makes a post complaining about US posts and ignores everything else going on in Europe
am we doing this right?
SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Sort by new and you’ll find it’s a bunch of Germans too. Ich liebe meine deutschen Freunde der Nacht.
Dozzi92@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Yeah, I block them as they come up, not because I have a problem with them, but because I can’t speak German, and there’s zero chance I’m learning German at 37.
roserose56@lemmy.ca 7 months ago
That’s what I’m saying months, especially with US politics and Trump, but I’m only getting downvoted! People upvote Politics and downvotes everything else.

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
RedFrank24@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Well it’s not like there’s much else.
Lemmy is dominated by exactly three topics and nothing else.
