I feel like 75% of Mastodon are people talking about Linux. If you don’t care about Linux you feel alienated. I enjoy Mastodon and Lemmy, but the lack of more diverse subjects gets to me if I browse for too long.

Update: I took your advice and purchased a laptop for Linux, and now I care about it! Problem solved.

    Oh my god, you’re still using Linux?!? I switched to Windows ten years ago and haven’t looked back!!!

    Yeah, agree with OP, it’s a massive problem on lemmy too

      I use it all. I have a Surface with Windows 11, a MacBook Pro (M1 Pro), and a Linux PC. I can see the merits of all of the platforms. I started using Linux in 2004, but I still think it isn’t for everybody. These days, Mac is probably my favorite platform, but that could change, and that’s OK.

      Use what you want. People have different priorities and use cases.
