Neither am I. However, I have seen one or two people on ca that claim it's an instance "for Canadians", but that isn't the majority view.

Canadian news is mild compared to other instances and their admins rock. They just did some good hardware updates and the instance is fairly reliable. 10/10, would recommend. The author of my client (Connect) is also on that instance, and I contribute a bit to that community as well.

I could see some downsides if the occasional post in French would piss you off.

As a Canadian on .ca, I'd say it was made for Canadians, but others are more than welcome. It's kind of like a nice park. Sure, it's ours, but you don't need our permission to come hang out.

And now I kind of want to try out Connect.

It's "for Canadians" in that if you're Canadian and joining Lemmy, lemmy.ca ought to be your default choice, but we welcome anyone that isn't a shitbag

Dude, you can still come over. As a Canadian you have my permission. Yes, glad to see other folks said something good about Lemmy.ca. It is nice. I agree. :)
