    I think everyone with a niche skill experiences that to some extent. Almost all posts about mathematics on lemmy attract people acting like they understand what’s going on while making wrong claims lol, I only rarely see comments that are fully correct.

      Yeah I expect climate change scientists would roll their eyes pretty hard at my post as well =)

        I guess me being a mathematician makes me notice them more. I’ve seen many in several communities, but me being biased makes me wish there were more.

          I just began math PhD program, maybe it becomes different after finishing it. Maybe we are in different communities? Mine is mostly this one, linux and programming.

            Different communities then I guess, I browse ‘all’ a lot.
