    When I tell people the only social media I use is Lemmy, I always wait patiently for follow up questions immediately after, which never come, because nobody gives a shit about what obscure social media the 35 year old man uses.

      I just say “I frequent a few niche forums”. No follow up questions. I’m old as well.

      As a 23 year old man, i quite often get the follow up “whats lemmy” but nothing beyond that.

          Then they ask me what’s reddit… And I go “it’s like Orkut communities, just without the profiles” and they go “oh that sounds cool”

          (Orkut was actually a thing here in Brazil)
