Ukraine and Russia are both historically Orthodox Christian countries. These churches celebrate Christmas based on the Julian calendar, and until 2100 this date will be 14 days behind the Gregorian calendar used by the rest of the world.

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church already began to use the Gregorian calendar in 2014, distancing itself from the Russian Orthodox Church, and now this date has been codified into Ukrainian law.

Well, the question for me is how many active contributors have left. If those who leave are lurkers, it doesn't really matter. If those who leave are mostly creators, that's a serious problem for the platform.

I think the fediverse communities are already proving themselves to be of significantly higher quality than reddit. The main difficulty I see is that I don't know if lemmy/kbin provide a good way to maintain cross-instance communities at the moment. I'd like to avoid fragmenting niche communities across them.
