It could easily be a coincidence, but I do wonder if it says something about, like, the slower pace of Dreamwidth and its embrace of asynchronous communication, that I meet so many Australians on here.
(who cares if we have opposite schedules, we'll just have conversations in which responses are spaced twelve hours apart, it's not like this is Discord)
On Tumblr you hear jokes like "you know you're up late when you start seeing Australians"†, but here the process is more "*wakes up, goes downstairs, turns on laptop* ah, time to see what the Australians have been up to today".
