I think it's much less intimidating to new users now compared to when I joined last year. The barrier to entry has been reduced significantly.
There are tons of active communities now, mobile apps that work great (this is a big one), and many more tools to block content that you don't want to see.
I still have no clue how instances work but whatever I'm doing has been working fine for nearly a year
instances are just distinct servers really.
and some of them are purpose/politics specific.
