Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?
Back in the day of AOL people had to pick what chat room they were going to use and then switch if it sucked. I think people that want to be here will make their way here over time.
I wonder what ever happened to Absolut1709...
Sure but we should still improve UX
The UX the way it currently is filters out non tech savvy people, so we mostly end up with tech savvy people here.
