I consider myself to just be an average Joe and I don't think Lemmy is too difficult to figure out. Moreso just a getting used to. I think the majority of people are just too lazy to put in the effort to get used to a new system, even if it is better in some areas than the previous system.
If you are already on this site, have an account and are actively participating you are way beyond the average Joe. The average Joe will only find out about lemmy a year from now 😂
Isn't that ideal though? Surely the "above average joe's" would help, and contribute to shape the place into what it can be to reach it's full potential? It'll give the server hosters more time to fix everything up. Certainly a lot of the people already here are going to be a lot calmer in response to bugs and glitches. Whereas if everyone joined straight away, it'll just be like a massive urinal with huge amounts of stress on the servers.
Exactly lol
