Yeah, I think quite a lot of people on Lemmy have similar social media habits (or lack of) to some degree. We also tend to associate with other people like us. Especially people in tech tend to talk to other tech people, or friends and family of tech people which is a limited demographic.
It's a very different perspective to most people. The average person on the train has vastly different media consumption and likely very different opinions.
There are a lot of people who consult LLMs in most aspects of their lives.
Yeah I've seen that trend.
Its very telling the amount of tech employees eschew social media compared to others.
Though I may be biased by my proximity to them in my past life. I wonder if a true study has been done?
