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?

That's exactly this. It's not a conditioning from society though, it's that most people don't care about how computer works, they want it to work. People here are the same, it's just that computers are our area of expertise or a interest. People learn about the things they are interested in. The things they use, they only want them to work.

Agreed. I might be an information technology aficionado, but I couldn't care less about how my car works as long as it does its job, so it'd be a bit hypocritical of me to judge the person I pay to fix my car for not being knowledgeable about computers.
