Honestly.... Ya, literally any extra steps in signing up or slight bit of confusion is enough to make the average person give up and go back to whatever platform they are comfortable with. I've talked to people who dispise twitter but won't even switch to Bluesky because the extra dot in the user handle is too weird for them.

Yeah honestly they should make cars with one pedal. Two is just way to confusing for the average person.

Conflating ease of operation with ease of sign up. Have you ever tried to read an article online and something pops up and you left the page, even if it wasn't necessarily trying to get you to log in? That's the sort of thing they're talking about.

One-pedal driving is a feature in a number of modern cars.

Wait until I tell you about the cars with three pedals.

Hi I found a 4th pedal on the far left that doesn't come back up when I press it, and my car makes funny smells now

My bicycle only has two pedals, but the seat smells funny too.

It's probably a controversial opinion, but you could solve that problem by not sniffing bicycle seats.

Who said it was a problem?

The difference is more like automatic vs manual transmission. If you've only ever used automatic, the mere idea of gears to push is enough to scare most people out of learning. It's the same with servers/instances and social media

Edit: spelling
