The mastodon and lemmy content I’m seeing feels like 90% of it comes from people who are:
-
~30 years old or older
-
tech enthusiasts/workers
-
linux users
There’s nothing wrong with that particular demographic or anything, but it doesn’t feel like a win to me if the entire fediverse is just one big monoculture.
I wonder what it is that is keeping more diverse users away? Is picking a server/federation too complicated? Or is it that they don’t see any content that they like?
Thoughts?
This place reminds me so much of early reddit. It’s been a strangely nostalgic experience so far. The part of that that I’m enjoying the most, is that commenters are more polite to each other as far as I’ve seen
Yeah, and there are apps. I don’t have to drag out my laptop.
Everyone writes in clear, concise and grammatically correct sentences too lol. It’s slightly surreal.
