Ok, I've seen enough questions and confusions about what the fediverse is and how it works on #lemmy (where the latest migration wave is happening, off of #reddit)...
Why, by now, is there not a "go-to" webpage or video that explains everything?! Starts basic and progressively gets into details.
I'm hoping I've missed it, because by now, not having something like this just known as the resource to point newbies to, is another user-unfriendly failing of the #fediverse.
@maegul @fediversenews sounds like you have a mission 😊 I’d love to see it happen too!
OK, collecting potential resources ...
Links here: https://jointhefediverse.net/learn#resources ...
including this wiki: https://joinfediverse.wiki/Main_Page
and this page which has a nice intro video: https://fediverse.info/
Honestly, by this point, we should just fund a way to pay 3Blue1Brown to make a video on the fediverse ... like that's your marketing strategy for the next 6 months, get him to make a video.

@maegul @fediversenews it could be a page on this?

Hmmm, that web page dumps me straight into a list of servers. Gotta explain why that's even a thing before you start providing lists.

As I've previously posted, the domain is there if someone has a proposal for a page. It is currently a bunch of random servers.
