This is super frustrating.
bluesky literally requires an INVITE to join.
This could not be easier.
I've gotten really tired of repeating this to people. The fediverse is, to an end user, very simple. Just imagine the days of old forums, but your account for your main forum works in most other places and all the feeds are unified. Super simple.
UX needs work, but it's still miles better than traditional forums.
