In Germany there’s an app called “Jodel”, which is essentially like a localized reddit/lemmy. That means, you only see posts from people near you (the default is something like 10km, I think).
This is of course awesome for localized events, Craigslist style posts, or just discussions about local stuff.
I wondered, despite creating local communities on Lemmy or tags for your city, is there anything like it on the fediverse?
This seems to be more about finding instances, less about actually posting localized.
BTW: why is feddit.uk hosted in Germany according to this site? I thought they brexited?
A domain can be hosted anywhere…
ahh yes, im sorry i misunderstood.
its because there is a very cheap hosting provider in germany that most of the fediverse uses, hetzner
