Lemmy.world was my first instance, it was a nice place while it was below 1k users, then it started to grow fast and degenerate until it’s become a complete cesspool from all points of view, not just bigotry.
I fled (I’m cis).

I didn’t either, not even once in years of playing on Steam.
Many years ago at work, when PCs started to spread, I taught a 60 years old lady how to use one. She never saw a PC before yet she learned pretty well, and I saw much younger people not learning.
Being willing to learn doesn’t depend on age, it’s a mindset, either you have it or you don’t, and if you do have it, it will last your entire life.
OpenSuse is essentially free marketing for SUSE, nobody would know them otherwise
I’ve been working for big enterprises for many years, SUSE is used in enterprise environment to run SAP systems because it’s recommended by SAP, OpenSuse has nothing to do with that.

True, it’s the desktop manager that can make a difference but you can install any DE on any distro.
What I saw and the reason I fled was their “freedom of speech” only applied to things mods agreed with, that’s no real freedom of speech in my book.
While I didn’t have any personal problem with them, I saw people and communities being banned for reasons that were not logical to me and I had the very strong impression their convoluted “explanations” were just a cover for their personal preferences, mind this is just my opinion.
I’m fine with freedom of speech as long as it’s coherent and not just based on what mods personally like or don’t.
I believe they do have the right to do what they want with “their” instance, I just don’t want to be in a place like that.
