I'm sorry but this is very clearly the flag of Luxembourg.

hon hon hon, this is cleearly the previous french flag

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

Incorrect, the French flag has very dark navy.

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

They changed it not that long ago it was lighter before.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Wrong shades of red and maybe blue for France.

[-] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 1 month ago

I hope there'll never be toothpaste with the German flag's colors

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago

Yellow and black tooth paste do exist, so we have the technology.

[-] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 month ago

Missed the opportunity to make it 1 pixel wide.

There is more red than blue.

What you originally posted two comments up, seems to have either a white pixel bleeding into the red, or a couple red pixels straying into the white.

That may just be my bad eyesight though.

[-] angrystego@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'm subscribed as well but the post don't seem to show up in my feed. I'll have to look into that.

[-] wetnoodle@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

ah I forgot to click all instead of local when searching communities ๐Ÿ˜…

looking at this makes me want to mod a game like minecraft or something so the player character is the landmass of the Netherlands and your health bar is the flag

[-] P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 1 month ago

Minecraft but you play as the Netherlands

Please make the Feddit one more popular, that would be so funny

[-] psud@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

I see zero subscribers, zero posts. I'm not breaking that streak

[-] wetnoodle@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Thank you! Just shared over there and edited my title for accuracy

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

The best part of this meme is watching the thumbnail and attachment together. It's like timed perfectly.

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 6 points 1 month ago

You see them long ones fairly often in the Netherlands, though I suppose it's technically called a streamer or pennant or something.

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 6 points 1 month ago

It is not the size of the Dutch flag that matters, it is that you use it.
