Speaking as an American, it would also be awesome if the fediverse explodes in Europe, and the dominant topics/discussions shift to EU focused ones.
I’d certainly love this. I’ve blocked all American(-focused) communities to achieve this already. Honestly, I often feel Dutch people know more about US internal politics than those of the EU or even the Netherlands, and I’ve myself gotten a bit sick of 80% of the news I see being about America (even in traditional media I feel America takes up way too much space).
I think in our media America should have a presence a bit bigger than China.
This would be a fascinating social experiment.
Ban Twitter/Facebook while the US keeps them, and see how the populations of the two countries diverge.

I too would love less America and all my social media feeds…

I feel the need to apologize for my country. Sorry!
