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?
It’s always the ones who are willing to experiment a little who are the first adopters. We’re always looking for something better, and as a result we often are the first to arrive, and the first to leave, we browse for different reasons than just “going with the crowd”
