It's still hard to gauge the stereotypical Lemmy user yet

    Excuse me, but I am not neurodivergent! At least not to my knowledge.....

    Depends entirely on how you take it…

    How can I phrase this nicely… I don’t think being on Lemmy, of all services, has a strong correlation with being neurotypical. When it comes to Fediverse users being neurodiverse, the odds are good… and the goods are odd 😆

    Actually, in Denmark iirc you're only diagnosed neurodivergent if you experience your symptoms as issues in day-to-day life, and I don't think I have any problems in my day-to-day. I follow a lot of neurodivergent people on Mastodon and the fediverse in general, and while I can recognize some traits in myself, I don't experience any of the difficulties I can hear they have.

    Does that make me neurotypical? Not sure.

    3/8 phew

    Neurodivergent, anti-AI, and, given the number of times I’ve inadvertently referenced internet culture and had to explain it to people, probably very online.

    When does middle age start again?

    Depends on the instance:

    • LW/FHF users: Basically Redditors but mildly more elitist and significantly more male dominated
    • Feddit.de users: Like the previous one except german
    • DB0/FAF users: Nerdy, queer, and very leftist, also somewhat generally pro-ai (I may be biased here)
    • Blahaj users: Very lesbian, very trans, many catgirls, lots of Linux users :3
    • ML/Hex/etc users: Very leftist, very aggressive when approached with nonsense, gets into arguments with people whos minds will never be changed

    I would characterize us as more critically pro-ai, or maybe even just not-against-ai
