IMO, everybody tries to explain what fediverse is, instances are, how they work, so on, and so forth. That's what is pushing people away. Just point them to one place. Lemmy.world seems to have the least friction to signup (no approval, only email confirmation), while also hosting a lot of communities. Just tell people to signup on lemmy.world, and search for whatever communities they want to join, and subscribe to the one with most subscribers. That should be enough. No need to 'educate' them on how fediverse works.
