think most people can tell that majority of African and Asian countries have anti-LGBT law without needing “international attention”

I still subscribe to a couple of niche subreddits because their lemmy equivalents haven’t taken off yet. But aside from the occasional check-in, I don’t really visit any more. Amazed at how much time I wasted each day on nothing.
