@m_artigiani Personally, it's not that it's being explained poorly, rather, people are too used to siloed / closed-garden #SNS that they find it hard to get their heads around it.
For example, in the #messenger / #InstantMessenger space, we've had #federation since the late 90s, thanks to #XMPP (formerly known as #Jabber). We didn't encounter this issue, people simply understood it like how people understood email.
Then later, there's #Matrix, which is also a federation. But I haven't heard anyone ask or got confused how it works.
In a way, I would say #Trillian, #PsiIM, #Gajim, and the interoperability of #ICQ and #AIM played a role there.
However, when it comes to SNS, majority of people were never exposed to interoperable SNS. Since #Friendster #MySpace #Hi5 came out, there never was a federated SNS until 2008 when the #Fediverse was born (then called #Identiverse).
The #ATproto / #BlueSky federation is coming in 2024, so we'll see if they'll encounter the same challenges in explaining instances. If they do, or do not (as the BlueSky team are saying they won't have that issue), then we'll know better since we'll have a comparison by then.
For me, I think we've done everything that we can to explain it.

One more #IONIQ5 toot as I repack the car after using the roof rack and Thule box to bring back our IKEA haul.
Probably my favorite #HI5 accessory is the SeaSucker roof rack sucktion cups.
Yes they’re surprisingly strong on the glass roof of the Limited trim, and they even pack perfectly under the rear false floor of the IONIQ5.
We pack the crossbars inside pool noodles so they don’t rattle around during storage, and the noodles can be used to secure a delicate roof load.

For all the OGs who remember the early days of social media...
I was in 6th grade when we used Hi5 to make our own pages in computer lab.
I plastered Kingdom Hearts propaganda all over mine. It was the ultimate work of campy art.
Things change so fast, we hardly have time to appreciate the differences between these days and those.
I'm happy to see things like Mastodon growing in favor though.
At long last, a welcome change.

So, we've had Rhona a few months. We've only just realised what she was doing with her paw. She was trying to teach us how to High Five.

Houve uma época, meu jovem padawan, muito antes da Era do #Facebook, em que este ainda desafiava altivo e elitista os populares #Tuenti, #Hi5 e #Orkut. Mas existiu uma época ainda mais remota em que os #memes de gatinhos circulavam em #PowerPoint intermináveis por email que, se não encaminhasses para 20 pessoas, trariam para ti e para os teus entes queridos as 10 pragas do Egito. Por isso, jovem, não desesperes: também a Era do #Tiktok há de acabar e apenas restarão os vídeos de gatinhos.

Como contaba en uno de mis toots fijados: desde 1996 ando por internet y #latinchat fue uno de los 1ros lugares que hallé para socializar.
Después en varios chats síncronos y asíncronos (#IRC, #peoplelink, #yahoo, etc), donde conocí personas de las conservo amistad hasta hoy.
Hice mi webpage en html puro en #LYCOS y luego en #GEOCITIES.
Terminé en #Blogger (la verdad #WordPress nunca me atrajo) y en ese inter pasé por #MySpace #Hi5 #Fb y #Twitter
Ahora henos aquí en #Mastodon
¡QUE VIAJE EH!
