I had the same issue described in the article... how do you choose a community?

It was the first question I had when looking into Mastodon, and a few minutes in I closed the tabs.

I don't want to choose a community, I want a single place/domain I rely on, I don't care if the backend is decentralised, I want the entry as a new user to be as low as possible, I need to understand the product in a few sentences.

They lost me as a potential user, I wonder how many more they lost. That entry barrier (just as with UX / registration forms) has to be as low as possible.
