      I don’t even understand what’s difficult about mastodon or lemmy. Just pick a server forget about it and enjoy the better communities

        Because it’s hard for non techie users to even understand what the word instance means. It’s not a concept you encounter in everyday life.

        And then without a broad algorithm that curate your feed, most users get confused on how to manage their communities across the fediverse.

          I think you encounter the concept pretty often in your life: every time you go to Walmart (or every other chain shop) you basically are ecountering an instance of the company, for example

          People are just not thinking about it

        Mostly “Mastodon is too hard” is an excuse people make because they just don’t like it and/or dislike the Fediverse in general and don’t want people to move there.

        I ‘interrogated’ a bunch of people complaining about Mastodon and it was pretty obvious that a lot of them either didn’t like the idea of Twitter replacements and/or were Elon Musk fanboys.
