      Better invite them here, what’s the point of switching from US stuff by doing it on US platform despite having alternative?

        Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

        “Inviting” then here is not very effective when the majority just can’t be bothered to.

        There are already plenty of communities by that name. Shamefully none of them are active.

          I’m not asking them to create this community, I’m asking to join here, increase user count and make this place more alive. What’s the point of this silly movement if they stay there? That’s totally counterproductive

            It’s not a “silly” movement and it had to start somewhere. And your attitude is certainly not inviting, but rather condescending. The issue of Lemmy is that the userbase can be insufferable in that way.

              Guess you start with platform you’re using instead of asking which ketchup is European, no wonder US is laughing at this, ye go there announce how how hard you’re trying to divest from US using their platform

                I mean, the movement just started. Give it some time. Lemmy, like Linux, will only grow. But it will definitely not replace reddit, but rather exist alongside it.

                It’s up to the userbase to keep the climate inviting here, and we should strive for that instead of criticizing the people indirectly supporting this somewhere else. Also, I don’t know what your comment is saying.

                  You have to be retarded if you don’t understand this chain of comments. You coming here advertising reddit to support your noble cause of switching to European alternatives and feel offended I didn’t play fanfare for you? Guess same BuyFromEU community is here, nobody needs your silicon valley advertisement so if that makes it uninviting you guessed right. Now feel offended and go back undercutting EU services somewhere else

                    How can one live with so much negativity directed at nothing? I won’t bother to finish reading that comment. You clearly have no good intentions at all.

      Reddit can go suck a duck. I would not even passively read reddit.
