Anyone from Germany care to comment on why this is? Y’all seem to have such a large presence on here compared to others

I’m from another nation-oriented instance that has an outsized presence, right next to Duitsland.

My guess is:

  • Germany is a big, populated country
  • People from DACH also gravitate towards feddit.de
  • The culture kinda gives itself to the project
  • The NL and the EU are the main funders of Lemmy
  • The government itself is embracing the Fediverse

German-speaking countries in Europe. Deutschland (Germany), Austria and of course the Confœderatio Helvetica (Switzerland).
