as a fellow zoomer I can verify that Lemmy is unique in that you and me as zoomers seem to be a minority here
This place is a lot like what the older Internet from the 80s and 90s was like, just a bunch of disjointed seperate individually run forums and communities run by passionate individuals in a world of digital anarchy where you can find something new every day. One minute you're downloading guitar tabs handwritten by some random metal fan, to reading about some guy named Steve's tribute website to his pet dog the next.
I think that's what draws us in and keeps us here for the older folks.
Same here, it's a lot more chill of a place at least
