Never underestimate the importance of convenience and the lack of work most people will do in most circumstances— and I’m not even blaming those people. A third-party tool will never catch on the way a built-in, organic convenience will.
It’s not even that I won’t do the work, I will. It’s just a shitty experience is all.
I don’t mean you specifically, friend. I’m just talking about the general (but not absolute, obviously) nature of people. But yee.
My bad if I made you think I took it as something negative, I just meant my comment to reinforce what you’re saying. Because you’re right, we’ll do it, normies won’t.
No worries, and indood.
Hmm, would be great if there was a like a nice, accessible list of these things for new users - tools and the like - and a link to that list was available on the Sign-up screen, right across Lemmy…
Would certainly go some way to reducing the friction between starting and knowing what you’re doing.
