Lemmy keeps me from doom scrolling like what I did when I still had my Facebook and Reddit accounts, and fck me I'm 25. Some content from mainstream social medias are too noisy, too personal, too annoying, and too short for my taste, and accidentally watched and heard them from public places.
And, I don't consider myself a tech savvy.
2/3 here. But hey it's not too different compared to reddit in its first years
The Fediverse is still relatively "new" (in the sense that it really started gaining traction a few years ago) and the type of people you mentioned are just the first to know about it.
If we get enough support and the big problem social networks crack we'll probably get a more diverse crowd later on. I doubt the Fediverse will become mainstream but it's definitely more known now and becoming more popular.
I feel personally attacked.
Uh... Eerily accurate.
2/3, and linux-curious so yes
-under 30 -was a tech enthusiast -currently i am not using gnu but i was
Like every other tech-related stuff that has some "depth" compared to "normie stuff"....? Yep, pretty much.
You got me on the 2nd two points
We do need to attract young people, this is what social media do as well, very important.
Mid 30s, healthcare worker but I suppose I'm a tech enthusiast. Use windows on work computer due to needing a few windows only programs for work, Unraid on my NAS, and Ubuntu on my VPS. So I guess 1 and 3 are true and half of 2.
could be, I am not complaining.
