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 agree! That’s what brought me over here. I really didn’t like what happened over Reddit and just love trying new technology out. Been hearing about Mastodon and the Fediverse so I gave it a shot. The mobile apps were what sold me on this and have kept me here.
That’s how I found Reddit. Digg platform fucked around and found out. I hope the same for Reddit.
Man, such a shame this seems like a cycle. At least I hope it is anyways and that Reddit finds out. Love your Apollo avatar by the way.
