Here’s how you get on Instagram or Reddit or whatever:

Go to whatever app store you use
download
enter email, username, and password
verification email

You’re done. Your voyager link is not the whole process.

Lemmy can be as simple if not simpler than that:

"Hey, Lemmy is a bit like Reddit, have a look at "
- they can have a browse, no download required
If they want to join, enter email, username, and password
Verification email

We could maybe ask lemm.ee admins to enable automatic email verification, but then they would need to fight the unavoidable spam bots registration waves

Email verification isn’t the issue. Every platform uses that. I’m saying the above is simpler than joining the fediverse and “getting around.”
