I agree, all those are super easy to use for an end user. I think maybe we need a website where a user can just check a couple boxes about what there interests are and it will automatically choose their instance for them. Would make it easier for those new to the fediverse to get up and going.
I’m thinking if any fediverse app takes off, we’re going to end up with a few monolithic instances sort of like Gmail and Outlook and those instances are where the masses will go. It takes away the “how do I choose an instance” dilemma. I suspect we’re already seeing that to some extent with kbin.social.

Yeah I think that’s where things are going. I myself use kbin.social far more than I use my lemmy.ml or lemmy.world accounts.
What will be really interesting to see is if we start to get separate instances dedicated to specific topics flourish.
