There’s lots of LGBTQ+ and FOSS (I wonder why lol).

the lemmyverse was created by tankies as a leftists social media platform; it moved to center right and octupled in users when reddit went full corporate.

there’s a lot of overlap between lgbtq and left leaning views as well as left leaning views and foss enthusiasts.

hi. are you me? lol

I’m an Aussie in my early-mid 30s. I’ve been living in the USA for the past 11 years. I’ve been a software developer, mostly focusing on web development, since the late 90s personally and since the mid 2000s professionally.

so your birth year would be somewhere between 1987 to 1993; you started professional web development when you were 14 to 20 years old? you moved to the us somewhere between 20 and 26 years old?

i didn’t even start dating until i was 27 and my career at 26 while my first website was at 16 years old and i never truly left the country; you’re either very impressive or lucky af! i envy you! ;)

PLEASE let this be true!!! i’d be happy with a just a lemmy version of pg-13 subreddits like r/pecsandpecbouncing and/or r/topsandbottoms

that makes sense to me because reddit has all of the content that lemmy has plus a LOT more.

i suspect that i will have to rejoin reddit so that i don’t miss (my) world shaking events like the recent red hat shift that lemmy completely ignored.

does gay non-ass/dildo/dick pics porn exist anywhere on the fediverse?!

i WISH i had this problem; it’s so difficult to find the porn i used to get from reddit and ALL of porn instances i found were either straight or dildo/ass/dick pics.

anecdotally; the lack of content and relatively steep learning fediverse learning curve compared to reddit both make it easy enough to understand why lemmy & the fediverse haven’t reached into the millions of users yet.

i’m a reddit refugee and i’ve handcuffed my ability to participate in reddit because i’m still angry about the api changes. i also work in technical, but i still struggle to understand all of lemmy’s (and the fediverse’s) quirks. both result me me still spending more time on reddit as an unregistered lurker than with lemmy as a member who can participate.
