@jeff onboarding is the Achilles Heel of Mastodon. There needs to be a better portal because "CHOOSE A SERVER" is not a phrase regular folks will respond well to. @jeff Or a migration tool that you authorize to connect to Twitter. It uses a tool like FediFinder to find your follows and assigns you to the server where most of your follows are (and open to registration). Then, automatically populates your profile, imports your follows, and updates your Twitter bio with your new Mastodon handle. @jeff *yells at cloud* @jeff that seems the intention of https://instances.social/, though I don't completely understand its conclusions or which instances are in the running. |
