I feel like the people I interact with irl don’t even know how to boot from a USB. People here probably know how to do some form of coding or at least navigate a directory through the command line. Stg I would bet money on the average person not even being able to create a Lemmy account without assistance.
like the early internet the tech gap was a natural filter and i see that as a good thing for the quality of the conversation.
Well, unless quality of conversation includes broad range of ideas and opinions. Personally I’m pretty happy with my little echo chambers lol.
