    Oof, the ‘how to get started’ section of that page makes all the classic mistakes.

    • sends people to join-lemmy - no, send them to an instance. Don’t make them choose.
    • “just choose any instance” - uhh yeah we know what happens when they do that. *.ml happens.
    • says which communities to join by using their https url. When people click that link they’ll end up on a different instance to the one they signed up on.

    In addition it recommends joining the communities BEFORE signing up. The order is wrong.

    They could have said

    • Go to https://piefed.social/auth/register. Do the whole onboarding process.
    • Go to https://piefed.social/community/[email protected]/subscribe
    • Then go to https://piefed.social/community/[email protected]/subscribe

          They are on the [email protected] Matrix chat, it’s not that difficult 😄
