They think every little thing is some overcomplex hurdle lol, whats the education level of ppl on reddit looking like these days, like you cant remember a website, seeing ppls instances next to their usernames is too confusing? They never used email before? It took me a milisecond to memorize 3dmvr@lemm.ee, and my lemmy.world, lemmy.dbzer0.com (hardest to rememeber dont reccomend) and sh.itjust.works, fedia, piefed, and kbin also I think
I really think it’s easiest for new signups to recognize instances with names in the form
lemmy.<tld>
So like, lemmy.world, lemmy.zip, lemmy.cafe, lemmy.today, etc etc. lemmy.world is great but it’s already so large, we should distribute some of that load. And some of the other ones are so small I’m not sure if they will survive, then the new signup will be even more upset when their instance disappears, or isn’t properly maintained. Plus some people might have a country preference.
I do remember only going to one site for everything, easy to get stuck that way, took reddit banning me for me to remember forums exist, they aren't completely dead, especially for specific software, a lot of interesting shit out there and the ppl actually know what they're talking about, all the ppl who dont stick to reddit as their singular site

Exact reason I chose lemm.ee, it’s the easiest one to remember.

okay man sure that's 100% the case.
I was quoting a comment from that thread saying "overcomplex hurdle" I think idr
