Love to see so many Lemmy mentions in the comments! That’s a sure fire way to get people to give the Fediverse a try.
I can say while it’s not difficult to set up an account, it’s not as easy as give us your email and make a password for this one site. I’m figuring it out as I go but those little things might be enough to turn some people away.
Agreed, the barrier for entry for a lay user is much too high, lots of terms and functionality gets thrown at you right out the gate. Hopefully the onboarding experience can improve with time.
And I’m sure it will. But one comment had a “welcome package” with like 13 different links.
