With previous Rexit's like the API debarcle etc. many users were left looking for an alternative, but with decision fatigue and bad UX etc. most did not find the Fediverse a viable option.

What needs to still improve, how can we be ready this time?

I find it really simple. I joined a site, I found communities, I posted.

It was honestly no different to using reddit, well without the spam and shitty far right losers.

There's just one little hurdle: choose an instance when joining. Maybe it could just be some sort of "choose for me" and every instance gets equal new users, random. Of course with the option to "nope, I'll choose instance myself". Everything else is technical and a casual new user shouldn't be bothered very much by it. Some are very interested and dig in to the knowledge, some just want to scroll cat pictures and call it a day, and that is fine too.
