Just recommend the biggest instance that isn't federated with them. Anyone got a list?

I do think it's valuable to recommend the bigger instances. If they're on a big instance, they don't have to worry about federation at all at first. It takes no effort to slowly learn about federation, and later they have the option to move to a smaller instance.

This lemmy.zip person didn't have a good onboarding experience. @zombiegirl2010@lemmy.zip maybe?

That’s actually me. I simply didn’t want to carry over that username but I guess I should claim it too. Lol

Yeah, I originally joined Lemmy during the first Reddit exodus. Then, I squirreled and did not spend the necessary time to learn much about it. However, this go around I’m here and I’m serious about learning it and using Reddit much much less (in hopes to abandoning it eventually).

Some folks helped me to find apps. I’m using Avelon and I really like it. It makes figuring Lemmy out MUCH EASIER than simply bookmarking.

Sounds great, and good choice of instance.
