    Yeah it’s really strange. I’m not a fan of MS by any means, but I’ve found myself making so many pro-MS comments on Lemmy just because the userbase leans so heavily pro-Linux and anti-MS.

      Lemmy and other Fediverse sites tend to attract folks who prefer FOSS. Early Reddit was that way too!

      And then getting downvoted by people who just disagree with your opinion. I’m one of the Reddit refugees so I don’t know if we brought that with us or Lemmy was like that before but it’s sad to see.

      It shouldn’t be that strange. Linux nerds are a huge Lemmy demographic.

      Much more up on new technology, FOSS, and privacy issues etc. than the general population. Good fit for Lemmy.
