We already have good information, the barrier to entry just needs to be lowered

I respectfully disagree. Reddit went downhill and significantly more difficult to manage/moderate when the masses joined.
If people aren’t willing to invest a bit of time to understand how Lemmy works (and it’s really not that difficult to understand), then I don’t think Lemmy is a good fit for them.

Having a barrier to entry just filters out non tech savvy people, and creates a bubble.
We want all kinds of people on Lemmy, not just tech savvy people.

Do we? I was never asked.
The community as it is right now, feels like the early days of Reddit and Slashdot. I really don’t mind that slight speed bump.

It also keeps people that join active for longer if there is a wider variety of content which comes from there being more members.
