Hello everyone,
I was having a look at https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active, and it’s quite interesting to see how different the country communities rank
- !dach@feddit.de: 1.4k weekly active users
- !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk: 1.2k wau
- !casualuk@feddit.uk: 942 wau
- !deutschland@feddit.de: 921 wau
- !france@jlai.lu: 249 wau
The rest of the communities (linked in the sidebar) are much less active.
Which brings me to the next question: people from those communities, how do you explain such a difference? Was there guidance from Reddit on the official subs to show people how to migrate to Lemmy? Is it just more spread open source / Fediverse use in your countries?
I know for instance that on the French side, the /r/France mods removed the few posts we made at the time of the API issues, and still today we are limited to a tiny self-promotion post on Sunday, that barely no one reads.
The meme sub wars and alliances were probably the most actually fun thing back over there. I hope the others make the switch eventually
