How can I phrase this nicely… I don’t think being on Lemmy, of all services, has a strong correlation with being neurotypical. When it comes to Fediverse users being neurodiverse, the odds are good… and the goods are odd 😆
Actually, in Denmark iirc you’re only diagnosed neurodivergent if you experience your symptoms as issues in day-to-day life, and I don’t think I have any problems in my day-to-day. I follow a lot of neurodivergent people on Mastodon and the fediverse in general, and while I can recognize some traits in myself, I don’t experience any of the difficulties I can hear they have.

Depends entirely on how you take it…

Does that make me neurotypical? Not sure.

So I…shouldn’t have mentioned Lemmy when that girl asked me to add her on Insta?
