I can tell you, most of South East Asia operates on Instagram and Facebook.
And Chinese people’s obsession with Weibo (like Mastodon) and Douyin (Chinese TikTok) are also on their whole own level!
Reddit, what Lemmy aims to replace, is very much Western.
Stuff like Weibo are what I was refering to when I was saying more isolated platforms. A lot of regions have their own smaller social media platforms dominated by one or two cultures. As for Instagram and Facebook, those two are largely world-wide but often (again, massive generalization) less ubiquitous compared to social media in the west.
Really?
Because Weibo is much like Twitter or Instagram in China; everybody and their grandma is on it, it has everything from memes to politicians posting their thoughts.
It seems very public to me, albeit if you have an account (which just about everyone there does)

What did you mean by isolated?
