JUST LIKE EMAIL YOU NITWIT!
We have very different perceptions of how people approach emails.
Guess how tech illiterates(?) approach email? They sign up on Gmail - perhaps with some handholding - and that’s it. That’s all they know or care about.
And before you say they don’t deserve to be on the internet: they are all using Facebook, Youtube, Whatsapp, etc. Unless platforms like Lemmy actually treat new users better, there’s not much incentive for people to switch.
We don’t want to send everyone to the same instance otherwise it’ll end up becoming dominant (see Lemmy World)
Based on what I’ve learnt in network science, I’ve got bad news for you: real-world networks tend to follow power-law distributions.
Lemmy, being a social network, is unlikely to be an exception. Some instances are going to become hubs and the rest would be peripheral.
unique interest or theme will determine the type and feel of content in your local feed
Then selection of interests and themes should be included in the onboarding process, instead of the mumbo-jumbo about choosing instances.
I’m not sure what you are getting at.
Then saying that you have looked through and reviewed the code would be lying. And that is unprofessional.
Maybe remind them that all of their upvotes and downvotes are public.
It’s possible to see what others upvoted or downvoted?
