@wjmaggos It can feel like it! I signed up on desktop and had a heck of a time getting the app on my phone to let me log in and not set up a new account. It kept insisting I pick a server before moving forward, even though I JUST wanted to log in.

It will get easier with time. But it is NOT intuitive. New things are not universally easy for everyone. What seems obvious to one person is a mystery to another.

@kawherp

I get that but lots of people are willing to help. I just wish they'd reach out before bad mouthing the experience. what's tough is that there's a network effect. we're reliant on lots of other people using it too to make it worth using for lots of people. ugh.

@wjmaggos Being able to ask for help requires being able to get onto the site in the first place. It was not straightforward for me.

@kawherp

there's been people reaching out on Twitter. I think people should cross post every time but focus on using that place to try to get people to at least create an account they regularly use here. Once we hit critical mass, that place becomes unnecessary. and Poof!
