Looking at the comments, it occurs to me that we're not a representative section of the online community.
Were literally people who went out of their way to not use a conventional/commercial tech product.
I wonder what the % of people on here is who have built a pc, used a raspberry pi or installed Linux compared to the outside world.
Considering linux, self hosting and open source gets mentioned in every community here... I'd say it's a significant amount
A big reason I use Lemmy is because I like all the FOSS discussion lmao.
Yeah I totally don't mind either, feels like I can say whatever I feel like here and people will understand what I'm saying
Well, Lemmy is kind of selfhosted itself, sooo...
