    Hey I just said I reqllly found your comment really informative and insightful, and albeit I have some vague ideas on how it is part of survivorship bias, i can’t quite tell what you refer to?

    What I’m talking about is mostly negative bias so I might be wrong

    Thanks for your time :)

      if you want to explain why lemmy looks like it does now, you can just look at the people who got there, but if you want a clearer picture you should also look at people who didn’t. failure to do that introduces survivorship bias
