Regarding this, an idea that would help with this and with a new sign-up:
Once someone completes the sign-up page, and before going to the ‘Welcome/let’s get started’ screen,
Have a screen that reads, in big type:
Obviously [username] will be replaced with the user name just entered in the sign-up form.
Then a 'confirm I have made a note of this address and will not be so stupid as to google ‘diaspora’ button to get to the next screen.
Obviously needs some refining, but an idea to help new users?
(Someone migrating should probably know about this already – it’s really brand-new users who will be ignorant of it.)
@flaburgan, as an example of this, could you possibly provide quick help to this new French user? How do I get back to my account? I could, but my French would not be good.
