That’s part of the problem. Confusion like this just leads people to not engage with the platform. I suppose it is what it is and just enjoy this place while there are still people here.

To complement my previous comment, I believe the best course for us would be, instead of trying to address something that will never be better than in centralized networks, to try creating things that are great and exclusive to the fediverse. People can deal with minor inconveniences if they get some unique experience in exchange

How can we create something exclusive to the fediverse?

[–] morto@piefed.social 3 points 13 hours ago

Maybe having fediverse events, with each instance participating. Maybe even tournaments and championships, with each instance being like a team and having representative users, so that when we register in an instance, it won't be simply entering a random server, but joining and rooting for a team.

That's just a random idea. There are probably many other possibilities
