I want people who don’t have some sort of superiority complex

I’d like more people on here that don’t use the words normies or NPCs, yes. I have interests besides news, tech, and politics that aren’t really strongly represented here yet.

Definitely

Yes

Yes

Personally, I desperately want more normal people on lemmy. There’s a disproportionate number of truly toxic people on here who love preaching about their particular fixation, usually political, usually far leftist (compared to the world at large). If I see a discussion about the best car to buy, I don’t want it dominated by a bunch of “cars suck!!” comments. If someone asks a question about an issue with Windows, I don’t need to see nothing but Linux evangelism. All of those viewpoints are fine, but in moderation and without vitriol.

I definitely want communities of people like that. When I buy a new laptop, I’ll probably put Linux on it and I’d love some advice. Sometimes I like having brainstorming sessions about the best way to promote public transit. I often enjoy arguing politics. But not everything has to be a crusade.

And for the love of Christ, I want more NSFW topics. Dating, sex, porn.

Yes.

And less people who are desperate to differentiate themselves from others they deem unworthy of their companionship because they…like to go out? Like to socialise with others? Ok that last one is an horrifying, alien concept to me. But come on! We have to be better than this. Please?

I’ll be the guy that says it: Lemmy already leans pretty hard in normie demographics. It is a trait inherited from Reddit, as many lemmy users are former redditors.
