Yup - I like the fediverse too, but I have plenty of clients who don't. Plenty tried Bluesky, most have left. They all seem to be going towards (shudder) threads now

I get workarounds, but for many they'll just leave...

If you want to remove the complexity and AI fedica is your best bet...

As a fairly new user to lemmy I have found that the community can be pretty brutal and there are quite a lot of set things that are frowned upon. Windows always gets a lot of abuse, but for me here in the UK the amount of Mac and Linux users is miniscule, for example... yet Windows is frowned upon greatly. Sp whilst not raging, it is deffo anti a fair few things. I know it is to be expected as it is a fairly technical things to use lemmy/piefed/fediverse but it still makes me wince. Like everything these days, the less passionate just don't post any more so it does bring out some strong responses

become a sole trader with no assets, no expenses but still a business. Sorted!

There might be but you ruined my quip!

Govt easily has enough majority to ignore this, I said this when everyone was going it is time for Labour to have a go at the GE. Same govt is making it OK for 16 and 17yr old to vote but they have to be age checked on the tinternet....

I would add that several browser addons that send you to a peertube version of a youtube video exist as well. Can make life somewhat awkward though as quite often the peertube version is actually of a lower quallity. If you are a creator if you use an instance that allows youtube import you can also automagically import videos from YT to your PT channel as well

when legislation removes a whole well know phrase in one fell swoop. Bye bye "swiss bank account"

And then Skynet became aware and impeached Trump

Facebook = the old bar that pretty much everybody used to go to, you know the one where the bar person tells everybody your business and there is always someone trying to sell you stuff...
Mastodon is that new place in town, but most people don't go really. It's cheap, nobody tells you what to do but most fo your mates still don't go there...
X is that club that's loud, people shouting all the time, trying to get your attention. It's where you go if you want a wild night and break a few rules

The issue with Mastodon, and pretty much most of the fediverse is that the non techy people do NOT want to choose a server, they just want something to work....
Once you throw in a lot of the positives us people see, it turns it into a negative for them, they have no need or want for decentralisation and they simply don't sign up.
