Yeah, this describes my experience so far. I really want to like it here, but so far it’s been an effort.
I am using Mastadon more, hopefully with time we see a similar level of polish. However, even there it don’t see a dent in Twitter.

I consider myself only moderately tech-savvy and definitely not an IT person. I managed to make my way on here, and decided to create an account on a lesser-used instance after the second evening of looking around. Granted, it took some figuring out (didn’t see any guides), but after about an hour I had most things set up to how I wanted it, and had Jerboa installed on my phone. If I can do it, 90% of the general population can. They just need the motivation.
The way I see it is, do you even want the general population on here? Maybe it’s a good thing they can’t figure it out.🙃
Definitely don’t want it popular enough for bots. But more engagement in niche (or non-techy) subjects? Yup.
Then you’re officially one of The Weird Ones™.
Nice to meet you fellow nerd! 👋
