      That picture is forever burned into my mind when I think of Reddit.

      I’d love to see one for Lemmy. I suspect it’d be largely the same except about 25% of us pasty nerds would be trans women, and there would be a lot of Linux merch on display.

          Likewise. Though judging from the Lemmy community for my province and it’s biggest city, maybe 3 people would show up.

        I feel a lot of people on Lemmy aren’t the type to show up to meetups.

          True. Most of us are too paranoid or anti-social. (Including myself, to a fair degree.)

            I used to be subbed to several local subreddits, including a [mylocation]-social.

            The difference in tone between people I knew from the `social meetups vs. the people in the generic city/state subreddits was truly amazing.
