I think this is a decent take. Maybe certain trusted servers can opt to be "default" servers and new users signing up on mastodon's default homepage are round-robbin'd into them. This can create a large burden of moderation on servers that opt into this, but it would be well worth it to turn mastodon into a user-friendly platform

Sounds like a good way. I have to admit, signing up for mastodon was a confusing mindfuck, and I'm not anything close to tech-illiterate as a reporter, and it's mainly because of the process. It's seriously crippled adoption.

people -> create content -> engages (including share) -> bring people -> create

same! I'm super tech-literate and I had real trouble choosing a server. and before that I had trouble understanding exactly what it meant (though the email analogy goes a long way). And of course I ended up regretting the server I chose and am in the process of migrating 😓
