It is my first day here and I found more political subs than development/programming. But I am a tech person. I think that mostly fediverse enthusiasm comes with a technical/programming background.

Are there any communities that are more social like ask reddit?

if you wanna simply to hang out with people, consider joining some matrix chats. Real time communication is easier with instant notifications.
