I am sometimes nervous about posting here: I love gemini, but I think I am in a smaller group of people here with no programming / technical knowledge, so I wonder if my updates are really just kind of boring or uninteresting for people in this space.

I think it's probably important for people to post more non-tech related stuff on geminispace. · 2 weeks ago

I find myself gravitating towards the non tech posts on antenna, and I'd say about half my posts are non-tech. I tried programming as a profession once and it didn't pan out. the philosophical and life-reflecting posts are my favorite · 2 weeks ago

There would be no point to all this tech if all it was ever used for was to discuss tech. · 2 weeks ago

Don’t worry about posting non-technical content, I can’t program my way out of a paper bag 😊 · 2 weeks ago

Honestly, it's refreshing to see non-tech content floating about. Geminispace could use more of it, so keep 'em coming! :D · 2 weeks ago

I'm really glad to see non-technical stuff here. The intention of Station was so that everybody had a voice, a place to share, vent, meet others on this tiny little part of the internet. Keep the non-tech stuff coming. 👏 · 2 weeks ago

That's understandable. It can be intimidating but your updates are not boring or uninteresting. I think they're valuable and important to the whole ecosystem here. You add your own spices to the pot and your enthusiasm can be contagious, and that's something that we can all appreciate. Keep posting. You never know who you might inspire. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. We're glad to have you here. · 2 weeks ago
