    I’m a teenage FOSS enthusiast and I’m of the opinion that there are a lot more of us here than you seem to all think.

      Same same, it is mostly the matter of your FOSS knowledge, if you were a FOSS nerd you would most likely to switch from reddit in some way or another… (16 btw)

    It’s so good because a lot of people have been waiting for a viable alternative to Reddit for half a decade or longer. It’s non-corporate internet, the way it should be.

    I had a lovely conversation with a 19 yr old. He kind of reminded me of myself, only growing up in this crazy time. He was really thoughtful about his experiences. Any one here now is probably a touch more mindful, but we can all slip and be dumb or even bad people, and when there’s more people, it’s easier to do, especially when there are people who are sad or mad or whatever.

      Is that considered a kid? Just curious about todays perception. When I was at that age it was considered young adult.

    I haven’t been here much since I joined last week, but one thing I noticed is I’ve barely seen any typos on Lemmy. While I definitely don’t mind seeing the occasional typo, the number of spelling mistakes was getting annoying, and it’s gotten progressively worse over the last year or so.
