What the title says. I think there is still a long way for that to happen but i’ve been hopeful. What do you think?

    But once that ship has sailed it’s gone. 60 years ago, everybody who wanted to own a car, TV, dishwasher etc. knew or was willing to learn basic maintenance and repairs.

      I think that is still happening. The enthusiasts create something, may it be highly technical and for the eggheads: if its good, people will flock to it and make it easier to use and give it a nice shiny frontend. No need for technical expertise from that point on.

        Agreed. I’m using the wefwef web app and I am quite astounded by the quality. The onboarding process is reasonably streamlined so I can see many stick around here. Lemmy has - imo - a far better shot of becoming a mainstay than Mastodon. There I see very little engagement.
