I hate to break the news, but yea the fediverse is more complex
I know it's more complex, just if you are trying to explain what the Fediverse is to someone who's older or someone who just thinks it's another social media instead of a whole new way of looking at the internet it's hard to explain to that person who isn't really looking actively for an 'alternative' for 'x' platform.
Gotta start with simple context they understand and you can add the complexity later.
