Install yunohost. Clicks in a UI.

Install pleroma. Or mastodon. Or pixelfed (for images). Or peertube (for videos). Or plume (for blogging). Clicks in a UI.

That's still way too complex for something that wants to be widely used. It should just be an app on your phone or PC.

That's an interesting point actually. Are there any yunohost providers out there?

The comparison was WordPress. No one installs WordPress on their phone or PC.

But what about step 0: have a working Linux installation with root privileges, and understand all the security implications of operating said installation.

The comparison started with wordpress. The vast majority of installs don't bother with that. Just take a VPS.
