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.
You are in a very, very small minority there
