I really feel like fedi is disproportionately autistic with comparison to other social media platforms, but I haven't touched any other major ones in years, nor do I have the necessary data, so I don't really know. Poll: do you identify as autistic (not necessarily officially diagnosed, etc, not trying to exclude the experiences of those without necessary medical access or subclinical presentation)?

@fcktheworld587 I have this idea in my mind that autistic people tend to be more aware of what sources they allow to put ideas into their head, with a focus on consistency.
It’s the need for internal consistency that drives me to The Fediverse View of the world.
Non autistic folks maybe value different things in their media, e.g. social connections to [ideologically problematic content]
Given the corporate schlock alternative, where the heck else are we autists to go for information about the world outside?
