Parts of India use Hindi instead of English as lingua franca, therefore the percentage is not as high

In-between yes. Within the western germanic language continuum it’s basically the center between English to the west and German to the east.

That’s PiS for you

Afaik there is also the simple fact that these regions are not an example of good governance

Not in school, but in uni I had one or two professors who would tell us that their own books were required reading literature. And of course they wouldnt give us free copies or at least a discount but rather we had to buy them.

Just read the comments on the crossposted post, there are lots of people making good points there

Da verstehen einige der zitierten Kommentarschreiber nicht, wie das Produzieren unabhängiger Filme funktioniert. Der Mann ist selbstständig, ergo investiert er sein Geld in ein Filmprojekt und kann das erst dann mit den Einnahmen daraus wieder ausgleichen.

Österreich wird Staatstrauer verhängen, ist gerade bekannt gegeben worden. Flagge am Parlament ist bereits auf Halbmast gesetzt.

Das ist der erste Amoklauf an einer österreichischen Schule mit mehr als einem Toten jemals – in der Vergangenheit gab es nur Amokläufe, bei denen jeweils ein (Ex)schüler einen bestimmten Lehrer ermordet hat.

Numatic shared the code you’d need to do most of this in another thread. So it should not be that hard to implement it in lemmy proper.

Are there plans to add or maybe add more in the future, or is that not currently planned?

They fund interesting projects anyways. It’s not like all donations go into managers pockets. But yes it is something to keep in mind for sure.

Which is actually where donating to them can help. They fund editathons, outreach efforts, events, and conferences, some of which explicitly focus on getting information into Wikipedia from underrepresented areas or people.

Not just political efforts - for example they fund their outreach programs and workshops for disadvantaged people to get their specialized knowledge onto Wikipedia.

But yeah, hosting is already funded therefore I dont currently feel the need to donate to Wikimedia.

A pinned post making the official stance clear similar to the reddit one should definitely exist imo – no matter what else is decided.

Gerät eine Wandergruppe selbstverschuldet in Österreich in Bergnot, kann man jedes Mal wieder annehmen, dass es Deutsche sind… und liegt fast immer richtig.

You came in here claiming that this community does not acknowledge how bad JK Rowling is or censors it. That is a claim you made without any evidence to back it up.

I’m not a mod here, I’m just subscribed to this community and post every now and then. It is not my decision how the mod(s) should handle this. All I want is not having to say literally every time I post anything “yes Rowling is bad”. I know she is bad. It goes without saying. constantly asking people to distance themselves from evil is absolutely unnecessary when that has already happened over and over again.

Maybe the community should display this better. But it is not my responsibility. That is what the mods need to decide.

My so-called “enjoyment” of so-called “Harry Potter” is not ruining anyone’s life. Or would you say that suggesting this just shows that you are a hateful person, is that accurate?

Again, we’re talking semantics here. The original phrasing was “popular”, not “active”/“activity”.

And when I say communities regarding mastodon, I’m not talking about the technical feature of groups but rather individuals interacting with each others in their posting.

The wording was “popular”, not “most active”. By subscriber numbers alone I think the dormant Leaky Cauldron one is bigger?

And the fediverse is big, I’m pretty sure that somewhere on mastodon you’d find a more popular group of people for this topic than here.

All news articles about Rowling are posted all across Lemmy. It’s not like people on here don’t know what she is doing or what views she has. And discussion on her has way more engagement on these other Lemmy communities than in this one – because user engagement in here is not high in general. Even if this community would be shifted to only talk about her, that would not generate good discussions because there is not much engagement.

It is basically impossible to discuss anything about this fictional Harry Potter universe anywhere on Lemmy because it gets down voted into oblivion. Taking away this small corner of Lemmy that can be used for this is really not cool IMO.

Let people simply enjoy posting about childhood memories and pirating this new content while hating Rowling. Why is that so hard? For all means, create a new community exclusively focused on Rowling and trolling her. I’ll support that. But this community here is not the right place for that. Because it derails the actual focus of the community.

This is not the “most popular JK Rowling community on the Fediverse”. For one it is not about that woman, and for the other the amount of subscribers to this community is ridiculously low.
