I really dont get this "Lemmy/Mastodon is sooooo haaaaard to sign up for". I'm a barely technoliterate 30 something who's closest thing to coding knowledge is the Missingno cheat in Pokemon Blue, and I figured it out. Its not that hard.

Like, the instances/server thing is the only real extra step you have in signing up, but besides that, its like signing up for any other website.
