Lemmy is losing so many potential new users because the UX sucks for the vast majority of people.
What can we do?

Why is “drama” on Lemmy always highly exaggerated by people?
“Endless wars of who federates with who”. What is that person even talking about and who the fuck would even care as a normal user?
Been using Lemmy for a couple of years, not seen this once.
Also, the ux is pretty much the same as Reddit.
These people are just stakeholders in Reddit. They are afraid of change, or losing any rep they have. They sit on a pile of useless upvotes.
The UX once you figure out what works for you in Lemmy is nice, the UX getting to that point is terrible, as many have said. Most will quit before getting to the good part.
Yeah, the UX of alexandrite, Voyager or even the Voyager web app for PC are sublime. I don't see any difference from reddit tbh.
