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...

I'd argue these are more unsafe for Americans than Europeans, y'all are the ones having to use the death traps.

Ok
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.

Nah, Piefed filters are great.
Agreed. When I tried Lemmy, it didn't have filters, so that was an immediate no for me. I just don't get the appeal of being fed a list, and not being able to filter out the noise.

Rarely I see a French post so I have a look but it's usually random news. French memes are so boring, half of them are about bakery and stuff.
I think there's a place for a community called 'epiceriedumemes', a play on words denoting both variety of content (like an epicerie) and spicyness (epicer).
Then again, it also really invites more bakery memes, so idk.

Apparently only USA speaks English and we should all be speaking German or something to show we're not American?
