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.

    A server is just some computer somewhere that other machines can connect to. You can get specialised hardware and network setups and other technical stuff, but you can also just use your personal laptop as a server by allowing people to connect to it. A server essentially boils down to someone leaving their computer on.

    Wifi is just radio waves. You can think of it like people talking on a two-way radio, except instead of humans speaking it’s computers.
