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

What can we do?

    This, the survivor bias is absurdly high around lemmy.
    This is my fourth instance because, for some reason, it’s extremely hard to find an instance that defeds the 3 main propaganda instances, allows porn/hentai, piracy talk, weed and isn’t too pissy about downvotes.

    Still I am thinking about leaving lemmy due to a complete lack of content for my country other than government propaganda… And I don’t feel comfortable creating a community for the same reason and there doesn’t seem to be anyone else from my country so… Nobody who cared about it (or who could help me mod).

      You indeed made the good choice, Lemmy.cafe is the one

      Why not use both Lemmy and another platform?
