Yeah, but joining an instance is so hard guys. How am I supposed to know which one to join? What if I join the wrong one? The human brain was never meant to know more than one domain name.

The whole Internet should just be one single website so I don't have to think. But I will complain about how only one rich guy owns that website, but I'll do it on that website since it's the "public square".

    I think it’s better to explain instances as phone booths or conference rooms.

    That's an awful comparison.

    It's like email.

    You can have a gmail.com address, and send and receive emails between yahoo.com and hotmail.com addresses without issues. Nobody really cares which provider you chose, and if you really want to, you can register your own domain and host email yourself.

    If this doesn't land, then the person you're talking to probably has never used a computer.
