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

What can we do?

    OP, FYI I pinged you on this post but it was probably drown in the replies to your posts: https://lemm.ee/post/55244676

    If you want to try out your approach (Photon as default, probably some communities hidden from the All feed), feel free to create a community dedicated to that project. You can probably promote it here and on a few other communities. The biggest challenge is probably going to find an admin wanting to give this a try.

    I wanted to do something similar a months ago ( https://lemm.ee/post/52588852 ), but no admin was interested. Maybe you’ll have more luck.
