    Well, give young people some credit, though. Mostly they’re the ones that have been closing their subs and migrating here and working to develop FOSS software like Lemmy. I say this as someone in my late 30s.

      I’ve seen both sides. There are a lot of young users migrating but there are also a lot of “been there done that with Digg” comments from us older users. I’m happy that the migration isn’t just one age range or generation of Reddit users but seems to be a good representation of everyone. I migrated from Digg to Reddit and am happier with the Reddit to Lemmy migration than I was back then from Digg to Reddit, if only because Lemmy feels like an actual solution to the corporate bullshit that ruined Digg and Reddit alike.
