    Hey the Linux community is active so they show up on All. Same thing with video game communities, it’s a reflection of the interests of those who populate Lemmy. I don’t care for either but we gotta start someplace. IMO it’s largely due to the concept of the fediverse and instances and not simply an app you sign up to. FWIW, I barely get it. Folks here seem to be a tech savvy bunch

      I think it’s mostly because the people who use linux are the people who are interested in free and open source software, which Lemmy also is.

      They accost posts en mass that have nothing to do with Linux CONSTANTLY. It’s actually really, really obnoxious, and it’s absolutely chasing people away from this platform.
