Super insightful, thanks. Lemme give you some examples of Germans I've encountered:

One guy asked me if we use euros in France.

A woman came to me because she couldn't open the bathroom door. I went with her to see what was up, I knocked, someone replied saying it was occupied.

Another one thought they were superior because of the Lemmy server they were on, of all things.

So yeah, no group is perfect, get over it. All this ".world that", ".ml that", ". whatever that" is getting old and stupid.

I know it's a stupid joke, thats why i made it. In fact, the joke builds on .world being such a generic instance unlike lemmygrad, hexbear or explodingheads, where my comment would've been somewhat true. I guess I should've added a /s.

Also, here is a list of French ppl I've encountered:

  • one of them was an avg .world user (Geddit? Geddit? /s)

Ah, it was an "I was only joking, brah" moment. My bad. I guess that's why there's jokes about German humor
