Lemmy can be pretty hostile to non-European standards. It’s weird… I wonder if Europeans are just using more accounts than Americans, and stacking votes.
If not… Then yikes, if Lemmy is losing the American audience, that’s bad news, friends.
Why are Americans so bad at geography 🤦
You do know there’s a world outside of the US and Europe, you know? And guess what, they all use Celsius.
This isn’t a Europe Vs US thing. This is a US Vs the world thing. Don’t be surprised when people want to use the actual standard.
It’s an incredibly euro-centric view to think that the rest of the world uses the metric system. Heck, even the UK mixes and matches units contextually. Plenty of global industries apply their own standards.
I’ve never seen an American on the Internet suggest China move from Chi to Feet, for example. Europeans just assume that they use Meters because they’re polite enough to just do the conversion on their end for international trade.
You do realise we’re talking about Celsius here, don’t you?
The UK absolutely uses Celsius, as does the vast majority of the world. To my knowledge it’s just the US and Liberia.
There is nothing Eurocentric about saying Celsius is the standard. There is, however, extreme US-centricity in thinking Fahrenheit is the normal one.
Whats the speedlight in British highways?
Is it miles per hour?
Yes, the UK mainly uses metric but for a few things they use imperial or both - what does that have to do with Celsius?
You’re not making yourself look good here by deliberately going off-topic.
