Nothing against Germans, I’m just wondering why, outside of the English internet, it got such high adoption in Germany compared to eg. France or Spain. I see next to no French/Spanish/etc. content on here in comparison

    I don’t know, but I think more Germans per capita are fluent in English than French, Spanish, or Latino people are, and maybe that has something to do with it.

      Ah that would actually be quite a logical explanation, since being able to operate in English would make it easier for you to partake in Anglosphere trends

        Anglosphere trends

        conversely, it can be a godsend when you consider how broadly the global north has been adopting fascism.
