Honestly though you got me there, I think being on Lemmy is a much stronger predictor of someone working in IT than whether or not they watched Homestar Runner, haha.
Like shot in the dark accusations of IT work here you'll hit someone 9 times out of 10.
Fair. I’ve been trying to explain Lemmy and the Fediverse to my non-tech friends and it has been…entertaining.
If they know what email and reddit it are, Lemmy should be pretty easy to understand, at least from a user-perspective. Replace reddit with Twitter/Bluesky for mastodon, Instagram for pixelfed, etc, etc. I don't think understanding how email works at a tech level is important for being able to use it. Ditto for fediverse.
They don’t know what Reddit is in the least. Using email can occasionally be a challenge. They’re hippy artist types. Mostly they only know Facebook so they can sell their art. It’s a different life.
