And oh look, it’s only available for people in the US! Because only Americans know things, amirite? πŸ™„

All they had to do was do nothing.

Is there a bin for usdefaultism yet?

[-] Ragnell@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

For a minute I thought you meant trashbin.

😬😬

It's certainly worth paying to hear American views over the rest of the worlds I would say. Reddit is on to a winner with that one for sure. American Reddit users like u/spez are so wise while we are so stupid.

They're willing to pay idiots to ramble on but they aren't willing to pay international lawyers to straighten out all the paperwork so they can do this outside the US.

Reddit is an American website... IDK why this would surprise anyone.

A company headquartered in the US but it's a website that has a presence in many countries, including the EU.

Maybe not surprising, but they are probably shortchanging themselves by not allowing folks from abroad to contribute into the program. USians aren't the only content creators.

but the mentality of the whole platform is very USian centric nevertheless.

[-] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Sure, and that's a problem. r/politics was too US centric which eventually drove the creation of other subs like r/animie_titties

There are (or were) a lot of corners that were an exception to the rule, for example I don't think that anyone would argue that r/de was very USian.
