It feels quite right. We need to set up lots of niche communities, but what I miss the most is the user base. It was diverse, and lemmy is known to have an specific user profile. Would be nice to reach out, wear a former redditors badge, and wear it with pride!
I'm surprised at how many Linux instances there are here. Very few Normie's instances so far.
Once you've seen the sun is hard to turn back and leave Linux.
I just made the switch to Pop from Win10 a month ago on my desktop. Gotta say that for games, I wasn't expecting proton to work as well as it does. Everything else works the same or better in Linux, except for Windows office software of course.
What is the "specific user profile" on Lemmy, in your opinion? I'm brand new here so just trying to learn what I'm in for!
Techies, anticapitalists, anticorpos, commies, and pro LGTBQ+ with special enfassis on the T.
I'm quite like that, but I don't feel comfortable in places that are... "just that". It can feel daunting and toxic.
I enjoyed commenting on Reddit because there's normies, ppl with cold heads, savvies, ppl from different backgrounds, and that Vietnamese guy how had no access to higher education and couldn't care less about politics, which sounds the opposite than an IT person how post about FOSS and anarchy. All that people had to find an agreement, and it usually turn out pretty well.
