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

What can we do?

    That’s a pretty funny thing to say when talking about a platform explicitly designed to fill the same niche as reddit.

    The call is coming from inside the house!

      The self-selection of Lemmy vs Reddit users is an inherently stratifying medium. Lemmy is also distinctly left-leaning in a way that Reddit is not.

      Having experienced several waves of Reddit absorbing Facebook exoduses, and the subsequent worsening of experience, I can only infer the same pattern will exist in Reddit slop migrating to Lemmy.

      If anything, I’d prefer that entire crowd return to Facebook to bloviate their opinions and Boomerisms ad naseum.
