    i have also written here about how mastodon is more user-centric (because you follow users) while lemmy is more topic-centered (because you follow topic-oriented communities).

    now i conjecture that maybe mastodon is more closely appropriate for location-specific content? because you can have one mastodon instance per city, to see all the stuff there (all contributing users) in a wild, mixed feed. and as is usual in a city, you might have specific people that you know well that you would like to hear more stuff from. meanwhile on lemmy, emphasizing individual users is a bit more difficult and less easy to do.

    so i’m wondering whether there’s a correlation between user-centricism and location-centricism, versus topic-centricism.

    this might be an abstract thought but idk whether you can understand it?

    (in which case i would like to embed whole mastodon instances as a community in lemmy. so you might subscribe to the https://feddit.org/c/mastodon:wien.rocks or https://feddit.org/c/all@wien.rocks community to see all stuff from the https://wien.rocks/ mastodon instance. wien is the city of vienna btw.)
