Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds? (lemm.ee)

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?

Yeah, we did try to get Nic Cage to play a Barbie, but apparently there are roles that even he won't do.

This is where the illusion falls apart because Nic Cage would totally play Barbie.

Yeah that's what we all thought too, I for one was pretty disappointed.

Maybe you can ask him to play a Barbie in the sequel?
