How common is it to fly your country's flag, and how is it seen by others? (lemmy.world)

My ex from Norway mentioned how unusual it was that so many places and people here fly our flag (USA), so I was curious to hear what it's like for others here on the fediverse.

CGP Grey made a YouTube video on proper US state flag design etiquette that I personally agree with. Spoiler alert, most states failed the test.

I'm from Indiana and we're more likely to see our national flag instead of our state flag here, but Indiana isn't known for much anyway.

That's a great video, being from PA our flag is pretty bad but at least I never have to see it. I only ever see it if I go by the courthouse or Walmart for some reason.
