Having to make an informed decision is a barrier to entry. it took me a while because I wanted to make sure I didn’t join (and waste time/effort) something I didn’t align with.

First I’ve heard of browseraudit, thanks for sharing!
EDIT: For comparison I got the same scores on Firefox (duh) and the following on Edge.
Score :
- Passed : 392
- Warning : 39
- Critical : 0
- Skipped : 0
Bonus! Browserbench.org speedometer 3.0 scores:
- Firefox; version 132.0.1 (64-bit)): 13.9
- Firefox nightly; version 134.0a1): 18.6
- Zen; version 1.0.1-a.17 (Firefox 132.0)): 17.6
- Edge; version 130.0.2849.68 (Official build) (64-bit): 19.8
Correct, but you are still presented with a decision that adds friction to the onboarding experience. I was aware of how Mastodon works and that I could migrate and it took me a while to create an account because I didn’t want to “waste my time”. I can’t imagine a regular user being prompted to “select an instance”, decide to go with the first one they see, and registration is either closed or invite only. That’s a huge barrier to entry compared to being forced into a single login that is always open.
100000% agree with you. I would never create a bluesky account because of that. Unfortunately people aren’t as informed and most really just don’t care.
