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 think about this a lot. I'm so grateful I had the experience of messing with the windows registry and other phenomena of the 90s.

TBH, I actually thought he was talking about autoexec.bat and EMS memory, etc, rather than windows. I guess I'm slightly older? Maybe not. I'm also thinking windows registry thing hasn't really gone away. Yet.

I never used bare DOS, my first experience with a PC was on windows 3.1

My first experience with a pc was Windows 3 also! My parents business computers. I remember playing Jazz Jackrabbit and skifree on it. I was very young. I did get to use bare DOS tho from a hand-me-down computer that only booted into DOS. I'm not afraid of a little Console/Terminal work. I actually prefer it for some tasks. Like Arch's pacman is SO fast.
