I realized that Lemmy being slightly more difficult to get started would mean that the user base will be smaller, but fewer low-effort people would make the switch, so it's really a plus.

I disagree. Us more tech-savvy people will come across, sure. But most people aren't. And they have hobbies and jobs too, and want a place to gather online for that.

I'm not tech savvy. I mean, I'm old and I can operate Windows or MacOS and their applications on real desktop PCs. But that's about all of my tech savvyness. And I still migrated here today. And already using Jerboa.

Yes, probably. I'm just an internet addict though and wanted to know where the cool kids go. :-D There are a lot of internet addicts on reddit who might look for a new home.
