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 still havent figured out how to reliably see mastodon or kbin stuff or if i even want to.

Lemmy is community-oriented, and I'm not sure it has a way to see posts that aren't to a community. Mastodon users can post to a community by tagging it, and you've probably seen posts from Mastodon users without noticing. If you want to see some, here's my photography account. Only posts to Lemmy communities show up at that link, but you'll see more if you view the profile on the original Mastodon server.

You should be able to view and join Kbin magazines just like lemmy communities. Here's one.

i felt like i was missing out on “content”

You are. It happens with email too; it's somewhat difficult to reliably deliver email to gmail.com as a small server for example.
