I'm more interested in distribution of users and local-focus of communities than country-based instances, nevertheless the map does illustrate that Lemmy has huge gaps - no country instance in all of Africa, hardly any in Asia... What can we do to make it a more global conversation ?
Fediverse promotion in some part in third world country (including mine) is hard.
Most people just want free and easy access to the web with their existing account
Don't a lot of places also have limited data plans, but unlimited data for using Meta and other big tech platforms? That's still a thing right?
all the shitty ISP's in most of the African countries make deals with Meta to steal and sell all your data
