Who does you think used Lemmy though?

Based on how nerdy lemmy seems to be with all the Linux talk the demographic that is more similar to old reddit.

There was a period early in reddit when it seemed more techy. Later on it became more mainstream with a shift towards people posting in a manner more similar to Facebook and Instagram sharing more personal pics and memes.
