It’s been difficult to broach the subject and explain the technical concepts to the average person. I did have some success in first sharing the email comparison, which lead into interoperability.

I’m just curious to hear people’s success stories, if you have any.

    “It’s like email. You can have an account on Gmail and still send emails to Outlook”.

    Edit: just saw that you mentioned email, so that’s usually the easiest analogy.

    About success stories, I don’t have many, people I know IRL weren’t interested in Reddit, so Lemmy is the same.

          I was focused more on making them aware of it, rather than trying to get them to use it. Just socializing the idea. So it was a success! They are aware of it now, but they are not yet using it
