I'll speak to the moderators, if we should unlock it for international politics, but right now it's US moderators and I barely know italy politics or EU politics but am Interested in adding them.
Then they should get more europeans, why should there only be mods from the US lol.
That's so reductive, it's absurd. It's free labor to moderate these things.
Who is they? And where do these people magically spring from? If lemmy has a low content issue, surely there would be a low amount of people willing to moderate as well.
You really think Lemmy has a content issue lol?
And of course free labor don't grow on trees but I'm pretty sure there are many that would be willing.
Because Americans were apparently the only people who wanted to work for free
I wonder if it has to do with r/politics being US only, I really don't know mate.
It's the same issue. Not all politics is american. It should be uspolitics instead.
