I know how email works but it sure didn't help me understand the fediverse.
It's just one thing in email servers functioning that is similar in the fediverse, everything else is not similar. It is just confusing to compare the two to anyone not yet knowing how the fediverse works IMO.
"It's like the postal service!"
"It's like the internet!"
Just say it's like reddit (or a social media) but free and open and anyone can have/make one, or use an existing one. For free.
/Rant off
I didn't pick my email my employer did. Other then work ionly use email for account verification, password reset and trqcking shipping. No really i have only sent a dozen or so emails not related to work.
One way to help the feediverse is to drop federation. No one uses that word no one knows what it emans. At best they will be "so its like Star trek".
