Yep, it is a bit refreshing. Feels new and old school at the same time
I'm actually part of the last two groups but I've also noticed that most people on the fediverse seem to be from an entirely different generation than me

Yup, as someone under 30 that doesn’t dabble too much in technology and uses Windows this is the first platform I’m in where I feel like the majority of the users are definitely more tech-savvy than me lol

I dont fall into any of those categories but I know that people of that description make or break a website, so here I am and hope things stay active and fresh
There was a thread of what OS you're using, and it was 95% linux users, and that is your answer. Being from the same demographic, social background, education level, political views, might not be a bad thing but it might make this place an echo chamber eventually. For that reason, we reiterate the importance to keep free speech as free as possible and to keep censorship as little as possible.
