I'd be one of those. I've become disenchanted with Reddit, and found Mastodon unsatisfying, so for now I'm mostly here.

This is ... often a strange and uncomfortable place for me to be. I'm geeky, and work in tech, and I tend left wing and have absolutely no interest in finance, and have a deep deep distrust of "tech bros" and startup culture.

I've also found that I have a tendency to come across in online discussions as far more strident and argumentative than I really am, especially when I'm tired. That's something I'm working on.

I try to think of each top-level comment like a sales pitch to get me to respond. If it smells even slightly funny, I pass. The next opportunity is just a 'next' away.

I can assure you, there’s plenty of you here. They just don’t comment on every subject.
