Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?
You're viewing a single thread.
If the miniscule effort of signing up for a platform keeps someone away, they probably wouldn't be a good community member anyway.
I consider myself an idiot when it comes to this, but even I had zero issues. Went to Lemmy, joined .zip because it sounded cool and started browsing All to discover other communities (same as Reddit). If it had more steps to that then I would’ve done that too because i acknowledge that Reddit is going to shit and I am committed to my principles.
You don't even have to sign up to view posts or comments.
It's not minescule. I remember actually taking days because I don't understand where and how to. You're a good person I can tell so stop being elitist as fuck it's childlike
Eh, I kinda get it. I think there should be a default instance with curated feeds coming auto-subscribed into.
I don't remember if this is the case since I signed up almost a year ago, and I use on the phone exclusively with Voyager
