I spoke Spanish at a shop in Barcelona and they were not my friend.

Barcelona is the capital of Cataluña. Try a few words in Catalán next time.

Coneixeu alguna comunitat catalana a Lemmy? Hi havia lemmy.cat però el servidor es va tancar fa una estona. He trobat https://info.prou.be/ però és l'únic que tinc la impressió

That's because you spoke Castilian, not Catalan.

Yeah Spain is brutal for that, catalan is the least friendly region pretty much anywhere in Europe but the rest of Spain you get the same rudeness for not knowing exactly what their special local custom or dislect is. Mostly from older women and loud men.

It's funny because they have a lot of really laid back folk too, it's very polar.
