Your guesses
New tech is usually a sausage party at first.
My wild guess is it’s about 75/25 right now.

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I guess roughly 60/40 men to women (and a good amount of non-binary people), based on the conversations I’ve had about gender here
-waves nonbinarily
🙋
Does it matter?
It's always good to know who your audience is. Different people have different biases, different experiences, different world views, etc.
I wonder why the topic deserved a minus in the ranking?
Sure...but it can change in a matter of seconds rendering this not accurate anyways, plus people can change their 'gender' if they feel like it. I just don't see an intelligent reason why it matters of an anonymous public forum.
People don’t generally change their gender on a whim, so that doesn’t make the info less useful. (Even if it did, trans people are like 2% of the population, so it would still apply for everyone else.) Men and women have different perspectives and life experiences because the world treats them differently. Do you think knowing the age, race, or country demographics would be pointless, too?
Basically calling his question stupid lol
I don't pay attention to the subs names. I use all and read titles.
people can change their ‘gender’ if they feel like it
._.
Yes. I put gender in quotes because I don't believe in it but others do. I believe sex is the only thing now. I do the same with 'religion'
Also what's wrong with the statement...people can change it if they feel like it, can they not?
do you know how gender works
I know how biological sex works. I've stopped paying attention to gender because it's not scientific and based on feelings now. I lump it in with religion. Not needed.
how do you know
Why is this getting such a controversial vote ratio?
Reading my comments below (including the not too much downvoted ones) should bring you close to an answer.
I must be too dumb then, but thanks for answering
More men than women like most sites. Probably 70/30.
I asked a couple of months ago and it was about 60m/40f, and age landed with over half being 30-55.
I'd go classic pareto 80/20 and make it 70/20/10 with non binary in the mix.
I'd say I'm about 82% man and 17% woman. Beats me what the remaining 1% should be called. Maybe "cabinet"??
