I keep seeing people comment that Lemmy is mostly men in their 20s and 30s. That’s not my demo and many of the posts/comments i see don’t seem to fit that.

Don’t forget that 98% of 14 year olds will not pipe up and go “Yeeeaahh! I’m just 14 in here!” This data has always been impossible to gather, as you simply cannot gather it objectively, it’s currently impossible at the technical level.
Throughout my teen years, whenever I had to submit real info for something, my name was Bob Barker and I just made up everything else on the spot. The computer had no way to verify if I am being honest, and I knew that.
And on that note, I am a snotty-nosed 14 year old.
I assumed they’re all on the gaming and meme communities. Oh, and porn.
Just wondering why this seems nicer than r/ and thought maybe it was less young people.
We know you’re not 14 because …
14 year olds also don’t know who Bob Barker is.
Im sad that 14 year olds havent, at the least, seen happy gilmore.
Happy Gilmore is almost twice as old as a 14 year old.

The price is wrong, bitch!
I was very interested in learning, during my youth. Not just the things my elders wanted me to see, either. I wanted to see it all. That even included world news and politics. It’s best not to stereotype teenagers, their array of diversity actually surpasses most other demographics in my experience.
I always thought reddit just picked the demographic that sounded best to advertisers, how would anyone know for sure?
My guess is that Lemmy is a new platform. The fediverse is also new to most people (myself included) and that leads to people genuinely replying to posts instead of trolling around.
Lol there are many techniques used to sniff them out that are pretty reliable, you fooled noone with that approach.
I am absolutely a hip and cool 14 year old. I have no idea what you are talking about.
