Which article, video introduction to Mastodon and the #fediverse at large is most appropriate for newcomers?

I know, and also from personal experience, that getting your timeline running is quite a hassle.

While I personally find that slowly building the timeline is worth it, many are coming from a social media world where things have been handed to them requiring little to no effort.

Every now and then I try and introduce people to Mastodon but I would like to also point them to a good guide to get them started to increase the chances they stick around.
