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 don’t know what you’re talking about, I’m just your average Hollywood celebrity here to promote my new movie “Barbie”, only in theaters July 21st.

      I like to think we’re all here like “hah hah, look it’s Margot Robbie” and in a wild turn of events, find out that it actually was all along

        There has to be at least one celebrity that would rather be surfing the fediverse than doing celebrity stuff with other hot celebrities. I would be shocked to find out it was Margot Robbie, but not shocked if it was Nicholas Cage.

          Yeah, we did try to get Nic Cage to play a Barbie, but apparently there are roles that even he won’t do.

              Yeah that’s what we all thought too, I for one was pretty disappointed.

              Maybe you can ask him to play a Barbie in the sequel?

      It’s fun seeing your username pop up in so many things… been a while since I regularly happened upon comments from the same folks over and over all over a site.

        It’s interesting phase on fediverse, not hard to be well-known right now. I’ve certainly remember some usernames from seeing them at unrelated communities in different instances and they’re aren’t even trying to be popular, just leave thoughtful comments a lot.
