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

What can we do?

    We have a slight disadvantage in that regard yes, but I know we can get to a UX comparable to Bluesky and Reddit.

    There just doesn’t seem to be much focus on it, I feel setting good defaults will solve most of these issues.

    Lemmy is nice for me now, but it took a lot of effort finding the settings and UI that I like, people will give up long before that.

      See, I just use Thunder client and the defaults are x1000 times better than the official reddit app.
