@FediThing@social.chinwag.org @masukomi@connectified.com @mcc@mastodon.social I agree with you in principle, and e-mail/ISP is the correct way to conceptualize this to other people. But to play devil's advocate, most areas don't have more than 2-3 providers available to them, and there's a lot more review/comparison material available to them on the web and in traditional media. It is an unfortunate truth that for a brand new user, no matter how many signals we put on the screen, there is no way to make an informed choice until much later.

@Gargron@mastodon.social @FediThing@social.chinwag.org @masukomi@connectified.com @mcc@mastodon.social That makes me wonder…

Have you considered, or is it even possible to have an on boarding process where the country of origin is selected and nearby instances that have already agreed to accept newcomers are presented? That way it might reduce the amount of choice paralysis?
