The first thing everyone that I’ve recommended Lemmy to sees is massive amounts of porn when they make their accounts. Telling them they need to block instances is a major hurdle as they don’t even know what an instance is when they migrate over.

Most end up not bothering and going right back to Reddit.

That really sucks! Next time maybe point them towards piefed, where it actually prompts you to filter out NSFW stuff in account creation. I haven’t seen any porn on my piefed account.
