Lemmy follows the 90-9-1 rule, and you have to be the 1

Well put

/r/Redditalternatives is a good place for that

Piefed took its place

Consider collaboration with similar communities. !fedigrow@lemm.ee is a good place for that

Hello, FYI this community has a rule preventing questions about US politics, feel free to post on !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

I was referring to the tendency of US citizens to overtake generically named communities like !politics@lemmy.world

If LW was managed by a US team, why not, but it’s not so it just seems strange

A mega thread on a topic as wide as US elections aftermath is probably too small.

!politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world has several threads about project 2025, do people actually consider moving out, what should be done now by parties and voters, etc

Great explanation, FYU I just posted this to !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world

soon Sublinks will come too (January was at some point a target iirc?)

I wouldn’t hold my breath. I keep an eye on the project Matrix, it’s pretty quiet.

Piefed is much more promising.

Anyway if you see that there’s enough demand for it (I haven’t looked myself) then that sounds great!:-)

Open !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world and behold the 20 questions asked regarding US politics

A lot of active people left, be it here, Tildes, Discuit, Discord.

The population still there has a higher right wing ratio

I’m half thinking about creating AskUSA on lemmy.today just to centralize the US discussions somewhere 😅

💯

!yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com, Ye Power Trippin’ Bastards, 257 => 850, 38 posts (8 this week)

Quite active week

Out of the top 20, there is Midwest.social and Lemmy.today but they are quite small (326 and 201 monthly active users).

Indeed, but an American admin team could still manage an instance hosted elsewhere.

Thank you so much !

!politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world seems like a good place to redirect those conversations, maybe you could consider adding it to the sidebar, should the rule become permanent?

As a major example that comes to mind, all of the technology communities

I’ve blocked most of them a while ago. Still seems strange that there is no AI enthusiast community somewhere, that should definitely exist
