My point has nothing to do with money or education, but that Lemmy is practically only used in North America and Europe (with Japan being the exception of the rule). Here in South Korea nobody other than a few immigrants use it. So I wanted to know if this is the same case in African countries or if they are themselves born there and still somehow found Lemmy and started using it.
Ah... nevermind then, I read it as possibly meaning something else.
I've noticed that Lemmy instances seem to be largely populated by "Reddit refugees", which was a mostly English-speaking demographic in the first place. Even in Europe, the (I think) only Spanish instance, has closed earlier this year... but Lemmy itself is a EU-backed project, so there's hope for some larger adoption, maybe.
