More non-English communities.
The Fediverse it's pretty English-centric and there are very few communities of non-English speakers, even huge languages like Spanish with hundreds of millions of people.
I'd love to get some BAME make up skincare etc in !Womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone but I've had zero luck
I think that's largely due to the lack of variety in our clientele.
It seems to be hard to get anyone from the non-geek community over here. My wife isn't interested at all if it doesn't have an algorithm. She wants the tech to spoon-feed her things she'll like instead of finding communities. Threads, Bluesky, Tiktok, Instagram just have all the people because it's what the masses crave.
I dunno I have zero tech skills... I am a bit of a nerd though if that counts
I agree with this. Outside of German, I’ve found it very difficult to find communities in other languages. I couldn’t tell whether those communities didn’t exist at all or whether they were simply not discoverable.
