    I’ll go first.

    • I think there is a strong pro-Linux bias. It wouldn’t surprise me if 40+% use it on here.
    • People from the US seem over-represented, but less so compared to Reddit
    • There is a far stronger anti-capitalist sentiment on here than other social media
    • The average age seems to be much higher. I joined when I was 16 and feel quite young unlike on other social media.

      I’ll add:

      • AI bad
      • Piracy ok
      • Political posts are more frequent (Bias towards political expression)
      • More tech enthusiasts

        “AI bad” overrides “Piracy ok”, though. I’ve seen threads in the main piracy community where the general consensus seemed to be that copyright should be used as a weapon against AI.
