Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.

What can we do?

    simply spin the wheel

    That’s how the Lemmy info page (what comes up when you search for “Lemmy”) does it, and the experience isn’t great.

    Before I knew how Lemmy worked I just clicked the first option it showed, which (for me) was a non-English instance. The second option was that LGBT-focused instance that defederated with lemmy.world a few months ago. Of course I didn’t know anything about either community so I just picked randomly. I went right back to Reddit until they pulled the next anti-user thing.
