  • as a brazilian, i have a few ideas as to why latam participation in the survey was so low and i don’t think it has much to do with low linux usage

    1. lemmy isn’t very popular in brazil yet, even inside the brazilian fediverse. my current instance is a few months old and it is one of the first brazilian lemmy instances

    2. unlike europeans, the overwhelming majority of brazilians is monolingual. only 5% of brazilians have any level of english knowledge and 1% are proficient. even if lemmy was popular in brazil, most people wouldn’t even see the survey anyway

    i don’t know for sure about the rest of latam (and the global south for that matter), but I’m willing to bet both of these points apply
