Kinetix :canada:<p><span>Kicking things off, I thought it would be worth highlighting some bits of the new user onboarding experience with Sharkey.<br><br>The onboarding process really seeks to help introduce people new to our fedi platforms, and is also happy to skip the hand-holding if you're already familiar with things.<br><br>Initially once you've created your account, Sharkey asks you to go through a few basic steps with setting up your profile, including allowing you to upload your profile picture/avatar/icon, goes over a couple of quick privacy settings that you can set, it brings up recommended and popular users you may wish to follow, and then asks to enable push notifications.<br><br>Once that bit is done, there's a small tutorial that it will guide you through, explaining what a note (post) is, explaining what the icons mean. It show you how to put a reaction on to a note, explains the various timelines, how to post a note, and how to mark an image as sensitive (also, Sharkey defaults to reminding users about adding alt text on photos as part of normal operations).<br><br>Basically, if one follows through these items, they should be in a not bad beginning position for getting going and getting something useful out of the fediverse.<br><br></span><a href="https://mastodon.social/@_elena" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@_elena@mastodon.social</a> wrote an excellent blog post about Sharkey here, including the onboarding process: <a href="https://blog.elenarossini.com/sharkey-a-fediverse-project-that-is-beautiful-inside-out/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blog.elenarossini.com/sharkey-a-fediverse-project-that-is-beautiful-inside-out/</a><span><br><br>I actually hope to keep these posts about Sharkey pretty short and covering single and specific topics.

Jupiter RowlandWhy are Bluesky and Threads so much better at onboarding than Mastodon?<br><br>Because they're both monolithic silos with only one instance each.<br><br>Mastodon doesn't require you to pick an instance. But the instance selection is that one UI element too many. Even though the instance selection nudges everyone towards mastodon.social, and even though it doesn't <em>require</em> interaction, it's still there. And to someone who has never knowingly used anything decentralised (remember that most people think that e-mail is a Google or Microsoft product), its mere presence is confusing and irritating as hell. If the prospect of having to choose an instance doesn't drive people away because nobody tells them about Mastodon being decentralised, this selection box does.<br><br>Bluesky and Threads don't have such a selection box. That's because both only have one instance and no plans at all for launching more. Threads was conceived as a monolith from the get-go, and it only offers just barely enough ActivityPub connectivity to be allowed into the EU. Bluesky tries to skirt around actually connecting to something else by having its own protocol that isn't compatible with anything else, thereby fulfilling the requirements in the EU, while making it unattractive to launch third-party servers based on the AT protocol.<br><br>Also, UI/UX-wise, Bluesky is an almost perfect clone of immediately-pre-Musk Twitter, and I mean both the Web interface and the official app. You can use Bluesky exactly like you used Twitter without getting used to anything new. Big onboarding bonus. Threads' big onboarding bonus is that onboarding only requires you to flick one switch on Instagram. Bam, you're on Threads. Easy-peasy. If you're on a phone, install the Threads app, and there you go.<br><br>There simply is no way for Mastodon to mollycoddle newbies enough to be able to keep up with any of this. And Mastodon has the best onboarding in all of the non-Threads Fediverse by a gigantic margin because it's the only project that mollycoddles its users.<br><br>#<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Onboarding" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Onboarding</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mastodon</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Bluesky" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bluesky</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Meta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Meta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Threads" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Threads</a>
