In Germany there’s an app called “Jodel”, which is essentially like a localized reddit/lemmy. That means, you only see posts from people near you (the default is something like 10km, I think).

This is of course awesome for localized events, Craigslist style posts, or just discussions about local stuff.

I wondered, despite creating local communities on Lemmy or tags for your city, is there anything like it on the fediverse?

    If mastodon would introduce location you could use it for that kind of stuff but I think they are busy doing other things. meaning, someone else would need to implement the location feature. And that’s totaly doable
