I signed up for friendica, after 2 decades of having never used facebook.

It's blank, and I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

I can't comment on what the facebook experience is, but I imagine they don't just dump you onto a blank white page, with zero explaination.

Note that I am NOT defending or endorsing facebook. I'm just saying the decentralized services have work to do before they can fully be reccomended.

I also recently signed up for pixelfed. It took 3 days to login the first time. And I'm still not sure what the point of collections is. But I did upload 4 pictures.
