Re: "To everyone interested in Japanese language & culture"
That's right... How about separating the subspace?
- s/日本語 - Where to post in Japanese
- s/Japan - About Japan (Mainly in English)
If you are interested in Japan but don't understand Japanese,
will you be able to post?

温かいお言葉ありがとうございます。それなら良かったのですが、（…最近出てきたあのクソガキ、でしゃばりすぎてねぇか。そして俺の作ったサブスペースが気に入らないのか…？）ってballoonさんに思われても仕方ないかなと思った次第です。
私が来た当初はここや他のgeminispaceでのログが数時間〜数日前、かつ色んな人が流れてたのに私が投稿しすぎて他の人のログが埋もれてしまってる…とか色々思うところがありまして…。
今後はきちんと英語読んで迷惑をかけないように気をつけます!
Thank you for your kind words. I’m relieved to hear that. I was just worried you might be thinking, "This cheeky brat who showed up out of nowhere is overstepping his bounds... does he have a problem with the sub-space I built?"
When I first joined, the logs here and in other Gemini spaces were a mix of posts from hours or even days ago, with many different people. But lately, I felt like I’ve been posting so much that I might be burying everyone else’s logs... and I’ve been feeling a bit guilty about it.
I’ll make sure to read the English more carefully from now on and try not to be a nuisance!
I don't think we are that strict here!
Thank you for being so considerate -- a rare quality in the English-speaking world.
If someone really doesn't like your posts, they can always mute you.
But you are nowhere near spamming, just the opposite. I look forward to reading more of your posts
I don't think you were doing something wrong, and I don't think anybody else did either!

@stack Sorry for the late reply! I've been getting so many notifications lately that I accidentally missed yours.
In the Japanese internet culture, I've often seen people get bashed for "failing to read the room," so I was a bit scared of making a mistake, lol. Especially since this is an English-speaking community and I don't know the culture well yet, I was even more nervous.
I’m so happy to hear that you’re looking forward to my posts! :)
@Sophira Sorry for the late reply! I've been getting so many notifications lately that I accidentally missed yours.
Hearing you say that really puts my mind at ease. Like I mentioned in my reply to stack, I guess I was just overthinking it because of my worrying nature! lol

Hi everyone!
Since @balloon 's hard work has successfully separated s/Japan and s/Japanese, I’ve moved this post to s/Japan. I also changed the settings back so it shows up in "All posts" again.
Everyone, please feel free to keep posting in s/Japan! I’ll be happy to answer anything as long as it's within my knowledge!
@goat
Thanks to your suggestion, things related to Japan are going to move forward even more. Thank you so much!!! <3
Original Post
To everyone interested in Japanese language & culture — Hi. I've been feeling so grateful for the help I receive from this community, and I've been wondering how I could give something back. Since I was born and raised in Japan and have lived here my whole life, I figured I could share some "real" Japanese as a native speaker. Whether it’s a simple question like "Does 'Konnichiwa(こんにちは)' really just mean 'Hello'?" or anything about Japanese slang and culture, feel free to ask me in either…
