actually, I’ve seen quite a lot of people not actually understanding email they just associate Gmail with it, and use Google’s UI to write and read, but that’s just the surface the same happens with people associating Google with the whole internet concept, like not understanding what a web browser is
And the fediverse can work more or less exactly the same way for those people.
