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 think that tends to be the starting point, but the user base is expanding quickly and is becoming way more diverse. There are already plenty of users who don't fit in that category, and I suspect it will continue to grow.

I'm far from 30, am a tech enthusiast but I'm taking a degree in a different field, and I do use Linux.

But yeah, it's hard to get other people to use media platforms like this one. I think it will naturally grow though but it's hard to compete with corporate media platforms.

I resemble that remark! Dang, you might be right. If so, well ... that's good and bad as others have said. Can we do surveys on Lemmy?

I don't fit that demographic whatsoever, but I am a tech nerd and a Linux user.

Quite fine by me, to be honest. I was tired of all the pokemon memes and references, as well as gamespeak everywhere (like "10+ XP, hurr hurr!")
