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

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.

    German here. Im not quite sure why that is either, but I believe the ich_iel sub on reddit largely migrated here, transplanting a very active and established community. Perhaps that has given german groups a large potential userbase right off the bat.

        The meme sub wars and alliances were probably the most actually fun thing back over there. I hope the others make the switch eventually
