For me it’s probably speech therapy and everything pertaining to that. I’m yet to encounter someone on here who is one apart from me (in training).

What about you?

    Considering the general conversations that are posted and popular here I expect I know more about Europe in general and some countries in it in particular that the average Lemmy user.

    I’ve not seen anything about 3d printing getting traction here nor snowboarding so I’ll add those two to the list.

    I most probably don’t know more about Linux than the average user here.

    I’m very sure I know more about flying an airplane than the average Lemming. I have been a pilot for 20 years and an instructor for 15. I’m not the only pilot on Lemmy but there’s not a lot of aviators among us.

  • Ah ha, my moment to brag about it:

    90% of Lemmy are Westerners, I probably know about Chinese Languages than most here. (Except a few users like @NorthWestWind@lemmy.world, they probably know it better)

    I can speak Cantonese and Mandarin and kinda understand Taishanese (台山話)(Taishan not Taiwan)

    I can read basic Chinese characters, type Pinyin and Jyutping. Can’t write on paper tho, idk how to recall it from memory, but I can recognize it if someone else wrote it down.

    (But don’t ask me to teach you lol, I only went to grade 2, not exactly a pro at it, I lack the vocabulary)

    Btw: I watched some youtube videos about foreign visitors to China, and um… their tones are kinda off, like waayyy off. Even people who’ve been there for like 10 yeats still have the tones being kinda wrong. (Its very hard, probably impossible if you didn’t grow up used to the difference in tones.)

    My very specific niche in programming.

    If you ask me about some very common things, I have no clue. JavaScript? More like JavaShit amirite? But if someone can explain OCI layers, describe the boot process of a RISC-V device as it leads U-boot and a Linux kernel, and talk about performance optimisations in modern Python… Well, my team is looking for more developers and this combination of skills seems impossible to find.

    Skydiving

    ~4500 jumps that included; night jumps, competition 4-way and 8-way, a couple of record jumps (I was on the a team that set state records in 3 different states back in the day) , Demos into various stadiums, air shows and a couple of NASCAR races.

    I might know a thing or two that the average Lemmy user has no idea about.
