I do quite firmly believe I have witnessed the death rattles of Reddit with this dystopian data farming nonsense. Absolutely nothing is worth this belittling monitoring shite.

You don't like the skin colour distribution on Lemmy?

Eh, I think this place is populated primarily by cis white men and that can have an effect on what type of comments and posts are tolerated.

Could be. I haven't seen any demographic data. There does seem to be a lot of LGBTQ+ people, but that could just be the forums I'm using.

Well, I didn't mention anything about sexual orientation in my comment, but yeah there does seem to be more LGBTQ+ people than the average here. I still think it's mostly cis white men.

Nothing about orientation, but you did say cis white men, and the T in LGBTQ+ is "trans". I think you're probably right, but I don't have anything empirical to back it up.

I would be shocked if there were more trans people on the Fediverse than cis people. Like....let's be real here.
