A handful of disgruntled tweeters tried Post and Mastodon, but the first is a graveyard, and the second is an obstacle course for non-techie users.

What's post?

I don’t even understand what’s difficult about mastodon or lemmy. Just pick a server forget about it and enjoy the better communities

what's difficult about mastodon

  1. picking a server
  2. not being spoonfed by the algorithm and having to actually think of who and what do you want to see/follow.

@noodlejetski @qooqie https://erinkissane.com/mastodon-is-easy-and-fun-except-when-it-isnt I read article and can say I understand many problems listed there. If you join Biggest instance then sure you won't encounter some of the listed problems, but federation isn't about joining biggest. Not intuitive UI also big factor, why greeting message don't tell Use #Hello #Привет or other language for first message? People don't understand/know about search being specific to # add to that bombardment with tips... Fediverse is bad for newcomer.
