I'm extremely new to this site, but have seen a lot of promising things. People here seem to use logic and common sense, instead of baseless feelings. I've also seen calling out hypocrisy and (to put it lightly) evil laws and regulations.

So you guys know how if you Boil down Twitter users, it's basically blue haired vegan feminist. Reddit users are the basement dwelling pedophiles. And 4chan are the racists.

What is the stereotypical lemmy user?

Aw man, I was excited to answer this, until your second paragraph. What's so wrong about having blue hair?

[-] Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me 11 points 4 months ago

Yeah there's gonna be quite a few here on Lemmy, and they're usually nice people.

I don't love being force fed advertisments.

And I get pissed off when API access gets taken away from me >.>

Fair enough

it's basically blue haired vegan feminist

You realize the intersection between the two is basically a circle, right?

Lemmy is pro Linux, anti Israel, and communist.

Huh. I didn't know I was all that, but I do like Linux.

Its very much the same demographic as early reddit: male, 20s/30s EU/NA, into tech and left leaning to very left wing.

[-] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Dudes dudes and more dudes. Nerdy dudes, needy dudes, autistic dudes, pedantic dudes. And girls who were born with dude plumbing.
