MODERATORS
I am 24, autistic, straight edge, and a data analyst. I'm the youngest person in my company, the closest person to me in age is 45. I haven't used a regular social media site since I was 14. My only interaction with modern discourse is my girlfriend's 18 year old sister. When she talks she might as well be speaking another language. My hobbies are unix, classic literature, VHS collecting, and synthesizers. My girlfriend calls me her 80 year old boyfriend.
Isn't Lemmy a social media?
The anonymous factor differentiates things.
Can't any social media be anonymous?
Sure but it's not intended to be.
Also a big part of it is imo that you never interact with the same people on sites like reddit or Lemmy, you don't follow anyone or anything.
I often see the same people over and over again on lemmy since its a small community. I even saw the same nicks on reddit often (like shittymorph). But yes it isn't intended to be ego centric like other sites.
