My experience: I can name 3-4 people I know outside work that at least know Linux. Every other acquaintance I regularly associate with has been met either mountain biking or running. I would never expect them to discuss alsa or systemd, and that is a blessing IMO. Gives me space to think about other things. My best advice is to find some other activity that you love doing and start from there.
