it doesn’t matter if they read it or not. the average non-techy person is turned off if a site/app doesn’t let them log in with one of their existing accounts (Google Facebook etc). Having them read a guide to understand isn’t beyond most people but most definitely do not have the attention span.
@JustinHanagan@Son_of_dad the inability of fediverse from catching on is less to do with any on boarding process for new users, but rather that people have grown accustomed to their gilded cage and pre-existing fully developed network. I’m still on FB, simply because that’s where I can still connect with some friends and family. I don’t have all of my cousins’ phone numbers, and friends from college or HS still post big life events on FB (found out over the years about 4 HS friends died).
You didn’t read it did you😉
