I've noticed that technology discussion is more commonplace on Lemmy than I remember from Reddit.

In what other ways might our demographics be different than Reddit and from other sites?

It's smaller so while the general communities feel more niche and welcoming, the smaller communities I was a part of are just non-existent.

I'm trying to take a "if you build it, they will come" attitude, but I'm not a very creative person so I tend to just repost stuff friends send me on insta.
