Brociopathic Mendencies (@jackdaw_ruiz@normal.style) says "i am no longer saying the fediverse is like email. from now on the fediverse is a lot that turkish neighborhood of uncompleted mini-castles. it was supposed to be one beautiful-but-unrealistic thing, and instead it's a different broken-and-hilarious thing, and if anyone lives there you have to assume they were driven into the hills for being unable to exist in polite society.". The post is illustrated by a photo of that neighbourhood

We should just stop explaining federation. If someone wants to give it a try, point them to one instance you like, and let them go there.

If they come from Reddit, it looks similar enough for them to use it.

    It's something that we should semi-explain or be like if you have questions just message / talk to me about it and I'll give more information.

    But yeah we often give to much info and overload people in one go.
