MODERATORS
I remember for years people would look at the interface of Reddit "old reddit" and just not understand it because of its totally utilitarian design. They couldn't make out the subreddit names being r/asentencelikethis. It kept the mainstream users (or let's just say less techsavey) out for a long time.
I think lemmy captures that original feeling of being slightly off-putting unless you're willing to get your head around it.
I generally tell people not to over think it.
Step 1 is to join one of the big instances.
Once they're in, then talk about browsing cross instances.
If they stay long enough, they'll figure out favorite instances.
