Well thats gonna be the case for as long as lemmy is mostly populated by renegade reddit users, no? Gotta have a larger userbase to provide a more varied degree of content
Yeah for sure, we have a lot of growing ahead of us before Lemmy truly establishes its own culture.
I would say that my personal experience has been that there is a significantly higher proportion of non-American Lemmings, as opposed to redditors. Like if reddit is 50% American, my feeling is that Lemmy is closer to 30% American. You can even tell when the Europeans wake up and are active, because they comprise such a large portion of the userbase.
It's hard for me to assess if that is reflected in the political content, because I always mostly ignored communities of that type, both on reddit and here.
