The question is .. do we care about THAT 80 % of the people. I would be more then happy if we can have that 20 % of more technical-oriented audience :-)
Yes, because I want my friends (who aren't tech orientated) and interest groups (which aren't tech orientated) to be on the Fediverse.
They're always complaining about this, that, and the other about the big platforms but they have so many hang ups regarding Fedi software, so they don't use them.
A lot of it is perception, but you have to try and make it so people don't have those perceptions or break them.
That 80% is important. We need non-techies, because they remind us that there's more to life than just computers.
