How many Lemmy users are non-technical background? (programming.dev)

I think most all of us here on Lemmy are people with technical background. Most of my professional contacts remained using Reddit, Twitter and even excited when Threads launched.

If you are non-tech background, please comment and share what you do for life.

If you have tech background, upvote this to help promote this post so that we can find more non-tech users on Lemmy.

Work on/build racecars. Some of it's very technical, but probably not the type you're asking about. Also a woman. I'm checking off all the abnormal demographics here. Right?

[–] Cybermass@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Yeah the only other abnormal demographic I can think of is being totally normal and well functioning mentally.

But I mean c'mon, this is an internet forum, we are all nuts here haha

[–] AttackBunny@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Haha, yeah I'm DEFINITLY not "normal" or "well functioning mentally".

[–] mrmanager 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don't you love the term "well adjusted" :)

Always makes me smile.

[–] AttackBunny@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

ha. I'm definitely not that either, but yes.
