How many Lemmy users are non-technical background?
I think most all of us here on Lemmy are people with technical background. Most of my professional contacts remained using Reddit, Twitter and even excited when Threads launched.
If you are non-tech background, please comment and share what you do for life.

Not very technical, I manage the testing of an anti money laundering system for a bank. I work with lots of coders but I’m definitely not one myself, more of an analyst than anything else.
I picked lemmy because I didn’t want to continue using reddit and this seemed like the best alternative when I did a small amount of browsing. So far I enjoy it even with less content, means I waste less time scrolling.
Excuse me, Mrs. Wasp, on a scale of 1-10 how much do you agree with the following statements?
I put out traps baited with pheromone lures (mainly) and then go around collecting samples and checking to see if we caught what we were looking out for. Some of the samples go back to the lab and everything gets identified to make sure there is nothing new or to track how far things have moved. We are mainly looking for crop pests that are not yet known to the area.
Very mixed background. Retail, customer service, warehouser, some technical support (HP laser printers in the 00s), a season and a half of a TV show, single-dad, commissioned fanfiction writer…
Professional fundraiser, having worked in non-profit my entire career (and my university degree was in a social sciences field). I wouldn’t call myself technically proficient, but I’m technically savvy - I was an early adopter of the internet as a teen, and have been online in some form or another since the mid-90s. Fuck spez.
I’m a college dropout, managing my microbusiness and screenwriter. I’m only using Windows notepad, Fade In Screenwriting Software, and browsing using Firefox whenever I stumble on my ThinkPad.
Before becoming a stay-at-home dad, I was a state investigator (and a police officer prior to that). I investigated medical doctors and nurses on behalf of their respective state licensing boards, investigating things like application fraud, substandard care, unprofessional conduct, and drug diversion.
My tech skills are limited to building a PC and basic troubleshooting.
My wife is a therapist and she’s considering making the jump from Reddit to Lemmy.
Mighty housewife. Used to have a semi-techy civilian job with the military. I recently volunteered to manage a very small community computer lab in my town. cybersecurity and sysadmin have been instructive here, but I usually can be found loitering at noncredibledefense.
I’m a US Licensed Customs Broker (I help people/companies navigate Customs laws and classification to import stuff). I have been building and tinkering with PCs since I was a teenager though I have no schooling.
