Gregory's Server@natalie_romana @llrd4 I don't think anyone was advocating the administration of a Mastodon server, just knowing perhaps how to use Mastodon.

@natalie_romana @geordie Not really, if your friends name is John then you follow his Mastodon: john@thisisjohns.instance If you need Johns email: It's the exact same idea, just people are more used to email. If anything, finding people to follow on Mastodon is easier than email, as there are hashtags and feeds to feed you new users. Email is more of a direct communication with little discovery. |

I realise there is an order of magnitude difference in complexity, but the process of finding people to follow on Masterdon, and finding existing friends is complicated by the server model in a way that email isn't? It means extra steps to "make it work"
