To me, it seems like most of Lemmy consists of users who are older millennials (born at some point in the 80s), male, and about 50/50 split between living in North America or the EU.

Do you fit this demographic?

Nope. I am reluctant in sharing the info. But i am not from 80s and i am neither from north america nor from eu .

I am a male though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

I'm a woman and I was born in the 1990s. I do live in North America though.

Thank you but I was born in the 70s. Did you want to see a picture of the burnt orange shag rug in my childhood bedroom?

Most maybe, but every other demographic is just valid a contributer to the conversation

I'm a 19-year-old female corvid that migrated to North Africa for better mate selection. I still managed to get a social security number in the US by showing up to the government offices piled on top of other crows in a trench coat and it is "315 34 5262". My bank account is filled with thousands of dollars in change stolen from people and can be accessed with the username "blackwings" and the password "neverdie111". Please don't use this information for any nefarious purposes. I need to feed my crow family.

Too old to understand why you’re asking about American Sign Language

Ha I thought for a second your age was in the 90's, but then I considered it more likely that you were born in the 1990's, right?

I am surprised that this post received so many genuine answers.

80's, female, born in the US and now (thankfully) an AU citizen.

90s, non-binary and south america.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Close, but not quite. One thing I notice a lot around here (Lemmy/fediverse) that suggests many users are elder millennials or older, is the frequent use of 2 spaces after a period. I don't really notice as much of that in other online communities.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Put in the legwork to find me Mr alphabet soup man. I know you can do it, you're just being lazy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Omg this is getting silly. Asklemmy really is just a user profiling feed.

How has nobody memed this yet? You guys seem waaay too comfortable sharing personal information for the fact that this is the website of linux nerds, don't you care about online privacy?

I identify as older millennials (born at some point in the 80s), male, and about 50/50 split between living in North America or the EU.

I'm not but that's how I identify.
