That’s entirely plausible. It’s fairly normal even. Thats still well over 10 million people and it’s common for people to be in the 95th percentile then go to college and be completely average.

Here’s the thing: we can’t ALL have been the smartest kids in our classes. It’s just so unlikely. We were the generic background idiots in someone else’s story all along.

With the barriers to entry that Lemmy has it’s not that unlikely. It’s like an incel going onto 8chan and saying, we can’t all be the most edgy people we know.
According to this website there are only around 40-70k daily active users (monthly vs semiannual). If you look at total users we’re sitting on about 1.3 million with 11 million posts per day and 23 million comments per day.
So 0.015% of the population on an obscure site which is not mainstream accessible.
