I feel like the people I interact with irl don’t even know how to boot from a USB. People here probably know how to do some form of coding or at least navigate a directory through the command line. Stg I would bet money on the average person not even being able to create a Lemmy account without assistance.
When I first read this I thought the title was “tech illiterate” which I thought was a bit rude, but anecdotally true.
Sure we’ve got healthy linux and programmers communities, but I think most people are just regular degular folx.
