I think everyone with a niche skill experiences that to some extent. Almost all posts about mathematics on lemmy attract people acting like they understand what’s going on while making wrong claims lol, I only rarely see comments that are fully correct.

I don't think I saw any math related post tbh, other than witty 3! = 6 one

I guess me being a mathematician makes me notice them more. I’ve seen many in several communities, but me being biased makes me wish there were more.

I just began math PhD program, maybe it becomes different after finishing it. Maybe we are in different communities? Mine is mostly this one, linux and programming.

Different communities then I guess, I browse ‘all’ a lot.
