What's the condescending attitude for? 🤨 I legit don't know a single thing about the platform, my bad for asking recommendations as a new user like the normal average Joe?

I just downloaded the app to see what's all the hype about, and once again, I'm asked to pick a group, in this case, a server.

I suppose it's like Lemmy instances, so, is there a general one, or an equivalent of lemmy.world in terms of size, interaction, and so on?

My mistake if I'm understanding things wrong, thanks!

Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds? in c/[email protected]

The last point is important, especially because I see people here mocking those who aren't as tech-knowledgeable than them for knowing the ABC of privacy and technology. How are you going to get more people to join if you aren't willing to listen why they're struggling to adapt to a platform like lemmy, and you think your POV is the only valid one? How do you expect to avoid echo-chambers when you're being condescending towards potential users? I swear, people just have worms for brains.

Open-source apps are consistently better than the average closed source app on the playstore (opinion) in c/[email protected]

Yup. This is the exact problem I have with them. Most apps look kind of outdated, finding one with nice UI/UX is like finding gold.

Right! I didn't know about it. It makes me wonder about which other things I don't know because people don't share it thinking it's common knowledge.
