We should start by designing better and more informative UX, and ditch the email analogies altogether.

Nobody imagines the correct thing when we harp on about how decentralized and amazing everything is, analogous to email but also reddit and twitter combined but also different but it doesn't matter because it's all the same in the end.

I've actually had a lot of success explaining this all like email; where you and I can create our accounts on different "email services" (instances) yet still be be able to communicate. Using something so ingrained in every day life makes it much more approachable, imo.

Once that concept is understood, simply saying that the fediverse, aka everyone who uses this technology, has alternatives to most of the major social media sites is not beyond most people. I mean, we're all here, right?
