The trickiest part will be having users pick an instance, but once past that hurdle, the federation aspect doesn’t need to be a complicating factor.

Yep, that’s the thing. When Mastodon was hot for a while, most complaints I saw were about people not getting that they can pick almost whichever instance and/or having trouble deciding because they didn’t fully understand that it usually matters very little.

I’m happy to be here. Lemmy seems like a good place so far. I’m not sure if it will take off in the long term (I think a lot of people don’t “get” the whole federated thing, just like with Mastodon), but I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
