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?

      I can’t use old school forums anymore. It’s so damn specific and it’s limited to power hungry mods and their lackey’s. Lemmy seems like a good spot but it’s not fully adobted yet. Like the early days of Reddit.
