Lemmy has been one of the best places online for toning down the American emphasis (although I think my blacklist keywords filters help a lot with that.... Highly recommended).

Lemmy has better European/Australian representation, but there isn't much Asian or African representation though.

Honestly no, I think it's worse here. I blocked so many communities because they're just about US politics, but that stuff is still everywhere, even in generic meme communities.

Must be my filter list then..... 200 blocked communities (mostly porn though) and 50 blocked keywords.....and increasing.

It's not even Americans talking about American politics either haha

I think reddit was more diverse, many local communities, language specific communities, etc.

[-] simple@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Either you've blocked half the platform or you're joking because I constantly fight with others for posting american politics in general communities.

It's the first thing. Glad to see it working. I do still have to ignore a lot of USA-centric political memes and it annoys me that political content doesn't stay in the designated political areas.

I welcome suggestions for active communities that are non-political.

Thank you for your service!

Reddit would allow you to completely ignore USA centric content since it was so big

If you ban all communities on lemmy that are related to the USA or could have posts related to the USA, there would be less than a post a day
