Unfortunate since people are confused on the whole federated aspect (which… who hasn’t used email? 🤦🏻♂️), but also the interactions are much more rewarding since they’re genuine and don’t feel like an algorithm (since there is no algorithm).
I can respect that, but also respect that people will find it empty and confusing, especially because it isn’t corporate, so there is no funnel to get the rolling. They have to be motivated enough to seek all of that information out and as much as people use social media, it isn’t that important to them.
Email does not have issues finding emails. For a much better post than I can write, read TheChargedCreeper’s comment above about the on-boarding experience they (and I) experienced.
I’ve certainly had issues with desktop outlook finding emails that mobile outlook recieved minutes ago. But now pertinent is that is only true for modern email - and only true for established email - it’s why everyone suggests not hosting your own email.
But, hopefully that experience continues to improve so it’s not a concern for any longer

Ah now see…
