The fact you call users normies as an insult just shows how pathetic the user experience is and that you think people need any skills or whatever to access it. It SHOULD be accessible and easy for "normies" but using that term is pretty pathetic.

What? It wasn't meant as an insult, I'm sorry it came off that way. I just meant people that aren't tech savvy or that aren't chronically online. And what I said is literally that people don't need any skills!! They just get scared off by terms they don't understand (fediverse, decentralized, instance...), but that in reality don't matter at all.

I'm very tech savy, it doesn't phase me, but I 100% think it's not as easy as reddit, facebook, threads, instagram, etc. etc. Lemmy, Kbin, is NOT as easy as the competitors

I haven't tried Kbin much at all, but it did seem different than anything I've ever used...

Lemmy I just made an account, followed a bunch of communities, and that's that. IDK, felt very easy. Obviously IDK the average user experience, didn't feel harder than Reddit though.

Mastodon as well, difference from Twitter was just that on Twitter I knew who to follow because it's more established, but in terms of usability it felt basically the same...

IDK, maybe I got lucky. But that has been my experience, and when I made my accounts I had no knowledge of the fediverse or anything like that.
