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 am a tech nerd over 30, using a mixture of windows and linux, and watch porn. While I’m not a furry, they have great art IMHO so people can share it even if they aren’t 100% into it. Some of it might even be ideologically driven, against the anti-porn drive: Add a lot of good porn content so that in case e.g. Reddit shuts down NSFW there is a good alternative.
