Basically, that's it.

I'm a French speaker, so I try to participate mainly on the French speaking communities such as [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], but the issue is that apart from the 2-3 top ones, the others are usually very quiet.

I know it's a chicken and egg problem (as you need content for people to come and participate), but for instance with movies, I'm always torn between posting the content in the French-speaking community, or the much larger [email protected], where I know that the audience is much bigger. Same for science, history, most topics actually.

I don't expect anyone to have a magical formula (the most obvious solution being just having more speakers of that language on Lemmy), but I was curious to see if other people in the same situation had insights to share.

ça ne devrait pas être la langue nationale d’un état membre.

Honnêtement maintenant que le Royaume-Uni est dehors, s'il n'y a que les Irlandais et les Maltais qui sont privilégiés, ça me va. L'espéranto est intéressant mais trop compliqué à mettre en place, l'anglais est déjà là et parlé par pas mal de monde en Europe.
