Having to write an explanation for why I wanted to sign up was really discouraging for me. There should be more instances without that requirement.

there will be. there is a high likelihood of brigading and DOS attack on the most hevily used instances right now. as more instances are stood up and federation deepens, 1 click signup will likely become much more common. I think sh.itjust.works is currently just that simple.

I ended up going with sh.itjust.works
