I think people who want to signup for something will not ask this many questions, they will just jump in. These are often just excuses to stay complacent on Reddit.

Edit: they signed up! They were just being analytical I guess.

    It’s definitely a concern. People ask these questions about Lemmy, but no one asks how the horizontal scaling of Twitter functions and then complains that your explanation is too technical.

      Yes, it is. And more importantly, it’s a collective problem: user A (like that one) wants a technical explanation, you give it, then user B complains that it’s too technical or too verbose or “ackshyually this is inaccurate”.

      I feel like the best approach might be a mix. Basically, what people have been already doing to advertise Lemmy there.
