I dont know if this has been asked before or if this may be a little goofy of a question but I didn't see anything relating to it and I'm kinda curious what the culture of Lemmy is like and what sort of common things people see. ive been paying attention to interactions but nothing is as good as just asking everyone.

I am probably blowing the statistics way out, but I'm 71, a podcaster on three shows, no degree, no computer experience except personal, poor, living in a trailer, in Eastern Tennessee.

You still didn't answer the most important question of Lemmy, though. ^(joke)^

Do you use GNU+Linux?

[–] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 4 points 6 months ago

sometimes it is a good reference point though

sounds like many would love to see your podcast! myself included

Well it's kind of hard to see an audio podcast. Although mintcast does broadcast its uncut show on YouTube, my others are audio only.
