Oh no, of course not. Obviously there's a second party member. I've never seen both members in the same room together though. (the second member isn't a person, it's a foundation founded by Geert Wilders)
ï, ö, ü, ä as well (as a diaeresis, not an umlaut)
Aw. We're pretty used to hanging out in English-speaking spaces so there's probably more Dutch folk hiding around. I do know the head admin of lemmy.world is Dutch, as well as one of the main devs of mbin.
Where are you finding all these Dutch posts? This is the only vaguely active Dutch sub I know of

- "Everyone makes mistakes, the EBU also knows a lot about that."
I think it's very typical how even though Nemo's song is about being non-binary, there's tv-presenters are talking about "him" and "that boy"
Extra fun is how many sources originally talked about a physical confrontation
Maybe they're Dutch, there it's only done for words that end in a vowel. Probably not though.
feddit.nl heeft wat Nederlandse gemeenschappen (bijvoorbeeld !thenetherlands@feddit.nl) die normaal zijn, maar ze zijn niet echt actief
In Dutch we only talk about turning screws clockwise and counterclockwise
He has a bunch of English ones on his website as well. Some of them are just the dumbest, least translatable puns though (in a good way).
For this one the joke even only works in Flemish (not Dutch).
Sometimes you just have to feed the canal, you know?
Chips? Fries are patat or friet here, depending on whether you're a heretic.
