I like how things are defaulting to the US as if that's the whole world.
She's probably American and talking about America. We shouldn't have to qualify every single thing we say, if it doesn't apply to you then it doesn't apply. It's certainly worthwhile to the discussion to add your own experiences in places it doesn't apply, but just pointing out that she didn't explicitly say she's talking about America (even though she very nearly did) isn't super relevant.
I'm dead sure the traffic Lemmy instances overall see have America as the top country.
Looks like every single international online space, not just Lemmy, is somehow dominated by Americans.
Do Americans exist outside Internet?
That's not the point
It's probably equally slanted towards your country if we all got on their network your country invented
