Am a nurse, but consider myself a bit of a computer geek. Was an avid Reddit user, but left in protest of the changes and never looked back. I've enjoyed participating in the growth of lemmy, learning the system by trial and error in throughout the migration. Has been really enjoyable, reminding me of when I switched over to Linux a bit in the early 2000's before becoming an avid gamer.

I know a lot of the non-tech savvy folks and younger generations were disappointed when joining lemmy and learning it isn't a polished platform like most other commercial social media is, but imo that's part of its charm, knowing it is a growing, living work in progress with the many dedicated developers devoting their free time to continually improve it.
