Exploring Mastodon
I'm on a discord server with a lot of non-nerds, and various ones are interested in Mastodon, due to Twitter issues.It's amazing to see how much trouble they're having... "Do I have to create a log in on every Mastodon?" ("No, and it's pretty much impossible"), "Can I follow someone on another server?" ("Yes, but it's incredibly hard -- try to follow them on whatever server you're on, maybe someone else is following them already in which case you'll be able to, otherwise here are directions that sometimes work") kind of things.It's just not ready for prime-time, even (IMHO) among nerds, but wow, are normal folks having a hard time.
