And that makes it better how?

[–] Blazingtransfem98@discuss.online 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It doesn't that was the point of my comment, it is sarcastic, because asking normies to write about themselves then manually determine their worth before they join will exclude the vast majority of them. Applications are how you run exclusive clubs, not a social media platform. Which is the biggest reason the Fediverse sucks for regular people.

I don't want to join a club, I want to join a regular platform. That's why I joined discuss.online and not any of the other exclusive club instances.

Yeah. I somehow caught that. I wasn't responding to you.

It lowers the barrier of entry which may deter some people who just want to check out the space first.

Granted, it also makes it more accessible to scammers, so give and take really.
