I think it just needs time to develop. Devs need to realize that most people aren't interested or don't have time to think or care about what federation is. Stop trying to teach people and just give users a one-click way to immediately start scrolling and browsing posts.
@exterstellar @Eufalconimorph this is exactly the same conundrum with Mastodon, all the technical mumbo jumbo confuses users, simpler words and a quick start experience is everything to really gain traction and maintain engagement during the few first days and obviously over time.... Federation, Activity pub, instances should be Directory, plain and simple
