I dont know if this has been asked before or if this may be a little goofy of a question but I didn't see anything relating to it and I'm kinda curious what the culture of Lemmy is like and what sort of common things people see. ive been paying attention to interactions but nothing is as good as just asking everyone.

well for me:

just passed 50 last month
been kicking around 'PCs' since the vic-20
buun using linux since Mandrake Helios (6.1)
have self hosted all sorts (including email for nearly 10 yrs, not any more other than a relay for my lemmy)
had a mastodon instance for about 2-3 years - but use mastodon.nz
spun up my instance of lemmy just as the exodus started
been into tinkering with electronics from childhood

I guess that puts me in the the tech group that seems very common here

other groups that seem well represented are the 'left' and lgbqt+
