I mean the only people who are gatekeeping are those that prevent themselves from joining because they are unwilling to work out how the fediverse and by extension Lemmy work and how it’s actually surprisingly easy to use, once you get used to it.

Still annoying, but so long as we don’t try to make it harder for these people to adapt than it already is, I think there should be no problems.

I was under the impression this was self-deprecating humor
