    I’ve found some of the more shit post focused communities to actually be useful (or at least I did back when i still used Reddit).

    PrisonHooch had more helpful advice and recommendations than HomeBrewing; PoliticalCompassMemes actually allowed space for Leftists to debate the Far-Right; Cremposting was where you went to discuss your tinfoil hat theory’s on the works of Brandon Sanderson; etc. (I know there was a dozen or so of these I used to lean into, but those are the three that immediately come to mind).

      2westerneurope4u unironically has some of the most important and honest discussions among Europeans, because people don’t need to worry that much about what they are writing. They have mastered less moderation, without becoming a hate filled cesspool.

          I don’t think most of them have a problem with eastern europe (except russia maybe) and Sinti & Roma are a lifestyle, not a nationality or a race.

            They are an ethnicity. To the extent that you can trace Romaní ancestry in people. They have multiple related languages across Europe. This isn’t a lifestyle, it’s an ethnicity.

          Asking about it was literally my first post on here. It would probably be against the rules, because a big part of it is making fun of national stereotypes and it might look racist, if you didn’t know what’s going on. I recommend checking it out on reddit. I think you’ll quickly realize why it would be a problem here and you also run the risk of people taking it literally and attracting the wrong crowd.
