@dalias The other day after the Facebook targeting of queers, and some more folks I know saying they're leaning FB and IG and going to BlueSky and TikTok, I asked if they'd considered Fediverse. Their reasons were - they'd tried it once, but didn't stick because:
1. Couldn't figure out how to pick a good instance
2. Couldn't figure out how to find interesting people to follow
3. the weird smug elitism and not people being positive and welcoming.
4. They were scared away by people demanding CW for weird CWs they didn't understand what they were supposed to cw and not. Same with alt text.
Not saying the accessablity stuff is wrong, but for someone new, it is a very weird culture shift that doesn't have much of an on ramp before jumped on you as a horrible person for not including it.
