I think people who want to signup for something will not ask this many questions, they will just jump in. These are often just excuses to stay complacent on Reddit.

Edit: they signed up! They were just being analytical I guess.

Most of the people who want to sign up for Lemmy are already here. They are technically oriented and don't mind dealing with the quirks of Federated platforms.

The commenter's concerns are valid. For a "normie" who's only used traditional social media, the Fediverse seems like a train wreck. I enjoy the Fediverse because I like figuring out new things and learning new stuff. Normies don't have time for that.

tl/dr: The average person will be very reluctant to use Lemmy.

Sounds like a positive to me.

I don't know if I trust the average person anymore.
