Are you a computer/tech person? (lemmy.world)

I’m a huge nerd, so the reason I joined Lemmy is because I was looking for a social media platform that conforms with my views on FOSS, moderation, and internet privacy. I would assume many other people are in the same boat, but is that accurate? Who’s just here because they looked up “Reddit alternatives?”

I'm just here for the Reddit alternative. Being FOSS is a bonus.

I'd say I'm more of a computer person than the average person, but less so than the average Lemmy user.

Same here. Reminds me that Reddit was mostly techy posts for the first while too.
