I’m fairly non-nerdy, though I like reading fantasy and scifi.
But other than that, nope.

According to the internet 78% of all data is made up. With at least 34% of it contradicting actual reality.
Wait a minute 78+34, eh close enough.
/thread
all this data is made up lol
wtf
Ironically this post makes me think you are less of a nerd as it has LLM fingerprints all over it. A real nerd would have compiled their satircal study by hand.
How the heck do you even begin to formulate a post like this.
Google’s Deep Research AI produces similar output. I’m not saying the user definitely did that, I’m saying they could have used AI for that.
I noticed they edited to say it’s all made up 😂
I’m a bona fide alpha male. Imagine Joe Rogan but more buff and with additional BDE. When I talk everyone listens. I was the star of every sports team I’ve been part of. I can lift a motocycle above my head and then ride off into the sunset on it.
Usually posting fit-pics on insta but I accidentally clicked a link and ended up here.

We’re only nerds if we come out of the Silicon Valley region of California. Otherwise, we are just sparkling geeks.
🥰 Thank you
we’re on a niche open source reddit alternative built by communists, written in rust, with multiple sizable linux communities
Good point. We’re a bunch of badasses.
– lemmy at its core
I’d say I fit neatly in the Dork category. At least, that’s what my imposter syndrome would have me believe.
No no, I am stupid too.
I am a hollow circle around the nerd core.
I don’t fit in any category :DImposter syndrome ❤️
That’s an intelligent analysis of yourself, a supporting evidence that you fit in the nerd category.
Gemini likes to tell me that I’m good in the emotional intelligence area. Haha.
I’m not. College dropout waitress married to an artschool dropout chef.
I don’t believe you, you use Lemmy. You are at least somewhat nerd.
Ah, but I’m on the anarchist instance.
So your reasoning that you’re not a nerd is that you’re an anarchist? I got some bad news for you…
I’m on a piracy instance and I dont pirate.
Well, anymore. Should really update my music library instead of streaming it.
lol anarchists can be nerds
Let me explain you how the Red-Workers-Movement of 1922 in the Oblast-Utbackya had this structural issue in their organization by the theory of famous late 19th century analyst.
So a political nerd lol
With politics, I think the term you want is “wonk”.
Not necessarily, a wonk (e.g. a policy wonk) is not analytically intelligent but may be emotionally intelligent.
A nerd and a wonk may have the same area of interest, but different approaches.
We’re early adopters. By definition: we’re nerds.
Who else does research on obscure social media platforms because they are fed up with mainstream surveillance capitalism social media.
Edit: If to be a nerd is to have a strong interest in something particular then everyone should be a nerd because having interests is awesome.
I’m not a nerd. Nerds are smart.
I’m on the border of nerd and geek
no, all people here are 30-40 years old communist programmers from california
I’m only one of those things.
Unless you’re the ontological projection of communism, you’re at least two of those things.
…People? I would say that’s too tautological, as the statement begins with “all people here are…”, and necessarily all people here are people, otherwise they’re not covered by the statement.
But I’m not from Cali!
Not old, not communist and I am from Canada. I am only sort of a programmer. Only do it as a hobby and my job is only tangentially related to it.
hey now.
I’m not 30-40 years old!
Hold up…I mean, yeah. Okay.
I’m not a programmer; at best I script.
slightly more seriously: lots of lemmy users came from reddit, but mostly from older demographic (because of old reddit phaseout) and more FOSS-oriented, privacy-aware, tech-literate part (because of API shitshow/alternative apps blockage). there’s some barrier to entry (choice of instance) that would filter off the least technical users. there are some prominent programming oriented fedi servers (programming.dev, infosec.exchange). lemmy in general seems to be more lefty than reddit, less americacentric, and i guess that over half are linux users. i suspect that because of combination of technical skill and older age (compared to reddit) lots of lemmitors have well paying technical jobs (again compared to reddit) which allows/requires them to live in nicer parts of their countries (not specifically cali)
Yeah I came here because of the reddit exodus but stayed for the linux. I just need something to scroll through when I am bored and my rss feed isn’t interesting me. As a young person its weird everybody here is old. I am 17 and would’ve thought more of the youth would be interested in alternative social media platforms. Aren’t young people supposed to be the ones who do things contradictory to the status quo?
Not from Cali, not a programmer (though honestly I could be).
Neither a programmer nor from California. I’m a rare southern red
I’m not smart enough to be a nerd.
Yea I’m just weird
Nerd does not imply smart
Not only. There are also some communists and furries.
Closeted nerd reporting for duty
