Robocop needs to be mentioned a lot more.

I mean, there are those that thought HP was dishwater from the jump...

BUSY and I've been paying attention to the news less and less. I have to.

That's the thing- you only need to have an account with one instance, and you can follow others from your "home" instance.

But I bring this up to bolster your point- Mastodon feels "clunky" because their onboarding process for new users is severely lacking, in my opinion.

It is offputting. It is intimidating. And that is a turnoff for a lot of people.

I like the way you think!

And especially the existence of places like the library where you can use a computer for free, makes it even wilder.

"Please go away" is as polite as I'll get.

Agreed, no need to throw a bitchfit over one inclusive suggestion!

An absolutely strange hill to die on, and may be an indicator of a bigger hissy fit in the future.

As someone who is the first to go "yeah, but so-n-so does this-n-that," I needed this reminder of the thin line between "being informative" and "being a killjoy."

Caveats are nice, but I still shouldn't discourage folx from making better choices.
