This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's still hard to gauge the stereotypical Lemmy user yet
Depends on the instance:
I would characterize us as more critically pro-ai, or maybe even just not-against-ai
I meant more generally speaking rather than in the AI bro sense
Yep. Unfortunately the internet scolds are absolutely without nuance on this matter, so I feel we have to always be very precise in our language
Neurodivergent middle-aged Linux using anti-AI nostalgiagoggle-wearing very online privacy enthusiast with some degree of fixation on tech, be that privately (their hobby) or professionally (their job).
Damn you didn't have to read me like that
i keep assuming they are like 22-26 given how massively immature/insecure most of their takes on the world are.
plus don't forget they are anti-capitalist, or something.
Hey man, 31 ain't middle aged
Depends on your life expectancy
Excuse me, but I am not neurodivergent! At least not to my knowledge.....
Ok, we might have some news for you then…
Are they good news? 😁
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.
So I...shouldn't have mentioned Lemmy when that girl asked me to add her on Insta?
Don't forget leftist but somehow not communist
Why am I in this post?
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?
That's not the important part, the important part is you now must figure out which Linux distro you'll be installing. I recommend Mint or FedoraKDE.
