Reddit became too America focused. Most of the posts were about America or assumed everyone reading was American. It felt very exclusionary.

But that were some good opportunities to dunk on the world epicenter, i've always took them

What id like to see on Lemmy is less America-hate... Or just hating on countries in general. Hatable humans live in countries, let's talk about them instead of everybody in that country. "Gunshot story? Must be America!" Gets old really quick

Nice try, American person.
