You joined Mastodon LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AGO (if MORE the vote on https://mamot.fr/@jz/109597358505636526 instead) and you are currently residing in...?
Please boost for wider, more federated sample!
(PS: sorry for imperfect partitioning of the world in only 4 zones...)
So that poll was NOT a good idea. I think i have to apologize. Some people felt mis-represented in arbitrary portioning of the World (!) and they were right.
A few mistakes here: not consider "Latin America" as an ensemble, conflate the "Five Eyes" together etc.
The answers are indeed biased (as it emerged from a EU-based account) yet even if they partially answer some questions i had, i will abstain from commenting them and just delete the post.
Sorry about that.
Hey @jz Not sure about deleting. I think you open an interesting point, and i know this was done without intention to make those mistakes. Anyway, mistakes are great, we learn from them, and mistakes ARE allowed on mastodon 😉
You prompted me to look for any non-US based big tech "social" project that has gained any kind of traction on the Internet since the dawn of time. I found #VKontakte and #Telegram. What else?
Seems most tech industry activity outside of USA is manufacturing (hardware)
