I'm curious to hear if you have any thoughts or ideas about this. As a developer I understand very well how Lemmy works, and cant tell at all what might be difficult or confusing.

A getting started video tutorial? I think a video will be useful for new users. Most of the users from Reddit will probably be able to use lemmy without any issues

Yeah, the PeerTube and Mastodon vidéos are cool vu they are a bit too much like ads.

Perhaps the best would be to have a promo video and a short (<10mins) how-to-basics video.

In the same spirit perhaps tips like RES does could be beneficial too?
