Yes, and we need much more like that if we want this platform to be sucessful as a whole. Normies want to join social medias, not clubs.

Why? There's plenty of general servers aimed at normies that don't require you to write an essay about yourself.

Let those specialty servers be specialty servers. Some only want artists, some only want neurodivergent people, some only want trans people on their platform. That's their right! They get to decide who comes on their platform and who doesn't. It's not up to you to decide that for them. You need to understand that the people hosting these servers are not gazillionaires that do this out of the kindness of their hearts, they want to foster a certain atmosphere and a certain community on their server, and they do their best to keep disruptive people out. And one way of doing that is by limiting who gets on.

So instead of desperately trying to join blahaj_artists.social, why not join normies.social like mastodon.social or mstdn.social, or mastodon.coffee or any of the other 'normie' mastodon servers.

Go here, select "Sign up process: instant" and choose any of the servers on that page, and you'll get in, without having to write an essay about yourself.
